Frequently asked questions

How many federal alcohol permits are in Nebraska?

Nebraska has 187 active federal alcohol Basic Permits - 42 wineries, 32 distilleries, 29 importers, and 84 wholesalers. That is the 48th most of any U.S. state or territory.

What is Nebraska's per-capita permit rate?

Nebraska has 9.4 federal alcohol permits per 100,000 residents (U.S. Census Vintage-2023 population), ranking 48th by density. Per-capita rates are high in wine- and spirits-producing states with smaller populations.

Which Nebraska city has the most permit holders?

Omaha leads Nebraska with 43 federal alcohol permit holders, followed by Lincoln, LA Vista, Papillion.

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 Nebraska's wholesalers-led permit book

Nebraska's 187 permits are wholesalers-led (84, 45% of the book), ranking #48 nationally by count and #48 by per-capita density. Federal Basic Permits authorize FAA Act activity, not retail sale, and are not a substitute for the state ABC license.
