It’s a picture of popular or originating drinks for each state, not highest grossing alcohol per state. Fireball would be like half the map lol. Personally i was thinking they would do Moxie for us, but Allen’s fits the bill

I think even less people know what moxie is than they do Allen’s. Most people who live outside Maine and don’t frequent their local Cracker Barrel don’t know what moxie is.

I saw a stat a few years ago that Maine consumers more Allen's than Jack Daniel’s, Jim Beam and Evan Williams- COMBINED! And no other liquor, not gin or vodka, comes close.

And I have never been anywhere else in the country that has shelves stocked with coffee brandy like they do in Maine. Most people don't even know what it is.

You literally cannot get it out side of NewEngland. Allens is crazy hyper local. People in other parts of the country have no idea what it is.

🤦 maybe, but fireball is just known as the, "I'm getting messed up" drink. Coffee Brandy is like the every day, have one or two drink.
