Print-ready table — Most Popular Beer by State
States Where Miller Is Most Popular
Miller is the most popular beer in 29 of the 50 states on this map. That group stretches from Alabama and Louisiana to Washington and Wyoming.
Miller's footprint includes much of the Midwest, Plains, and interior West. It also wins Hawaii, Maryland, Massachusetts, and Rhode Island, which shows how broad its map is compared with every other brand.
States Where Coors Is Most Popular
Coors ranks second with 8 states. Arizona, California, Michigan, New Mexico, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Texas, and Virginia all place it first.
That makes Coors the only brand with a clear second tier behind Miller. Budweiser and Bud Light each win only 2 states, so Coors stands alone as the main challenger.
Beer Brand Outliers by State
Several brands win only one state each. Blue Moon leads Colorado, Corona leads Connecticut, and Busch leads Illinois and Indiana.
Guinness wins Georgia, New Jersey, and South Carolina, while Heineken leads Florida and New York. Those smaller pockets break up what would otherwise be a map dominated almost entirely by Miller and Coors.
