Data & reports

Frequently asked questions

How many federal alcohol permits are in Kansas?

Kansas has 1,109 active federal alcohol Basic Permits - 87 wineries, 44 distilleries, 76 importers, and 902 wholesalers. That is the 21st most of any U.S. state or territory.

What is Kansas's per-capita permit rate?

Kansas has 37.7 federal alcohol permits per 100,000 residents (U.S. Census Vintage-2023 population), ranking 8th by density. Per-capita rates are high in wine- and spirits-producing states with smaller populations.

Which Kansas city has the most permit holders?

Wichita leads Kansas with 117 federal alcohol permit holders, followed by Overland Park, Olathe, Lawrence.

Are breweries included?

No. Breweries do not hold an FAA Basic Permit, they operate under a Brewer's Notice (IRC §6103, protected from disclosure), so they are not in the public TTB List of Permittees this directory is built from.

Where does this data come from?

The TTB FOIA "List of Permittees," published August 2026, public U.S. government data, reformatted without alteration.

Reading Kansas's count-vs-density split

Kansas holds 1,109 federal alcohol permits (#21 of 52 by count) but ranks #8 at 37.7 per 100,000 residents — count rank and density rank diverge on this state. Federal Basic Permits authorize FAA Act activity, not retail sale, and are not a substitute for the state ABC license.
