What is Minnesota's per-capita permit rate?

Minnesota has 13.4 federal alcohol permits per 100,000 residents (U.S. Census Vintage-2023 population), ranking 42nd by density. Per-capita rates are high in wine- and spirits-producing states with smaller populations.

Which Minnesota 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.
