Data & reports

Frequently asked questions

How many federal alcohol permits are in Virginia?

Virginia has 2,025 active federal alcohol Basic Permits - 643 wineries, 158 distilleries, 506 importers, and 718 wholesalers. That is the 9th most of any U.S. state or territory.

What is Virginia's per-capita permit rate?

Virginia has 23.2 federal alcohol permits per 100,000 residents (U.S. Census Vintage-2023 population), ranking 20th by density. Per-capita rates are high in wine- and spirits-producing states with smaller populations.

Which Virginia city has the most permit holders?

Richmond leads Virginia with 116 federal alcohol permit holders, followed by Alexandria, Charlottesville, Arlington.

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 Virginia's count-vs-density split

Virginia holds 2,025 federal alcohol permits (#9 of 52 by count) but ranks #20 at 23.2 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.
