National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA)
Since 1977, The National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA), under the National Institute of Health (NIH), has been examining trends in apparent per capita alcohol consumption in the United States for decades. Findings are based on alcoholic beverage sales data, collected from the states or the National Alcohol Beverage Control Association (NABCA) by the Alcohol Epidemiologic Data System (AEDS) and various reports produced by beverage industry sources. Population data from the U.S. Census Bureau are used as denominators to calculate per capita rates.
These reports provide data on national consumption of beer, wine and distilled spirits and for all alcoholic beverages combined; consumption trends for each state for the same beverage categories; and consumption trends for each type of beverage and all beverages combined for U.S. regions.
NIAAA also provides U.S. Alcohol Epidemiologic Data Manuals, which are statistical compendia of alcohol-related data useful to researchers and others interested in alcohol problems.
