Maryland has 1,206 active federal alcohol Basic Permits - 219 wineries, 87 distilleries, 371 importers, and 529 wholesalers. That is the 19th most of any U.S. state or territory.

What is Maryland's per-capita permit rate?

Maryland has 19.5 federal alcohol permits per 100,000 residents (U.S. Census Vintage-2023 population), ranking 26th by density. Per-capita rates are high in wine- and spirits-producing states with smaller populations.

Which Maryland city has the most permit holders?

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 Maryland's count-vs-density split

Maryland holds 1,206 federal alcohol permits (#19 of 52 by count) but ranks #26 at 19.5 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.
