The annual output of breweries in the Empire State is 14,000,000 bbls., 10,000,000 of which are brewed in Greater New York.

The sale of beer in the last ten years in New York State showed an increase of nearly 4,000,000 bbls. The sale of bottled beer has shown a remarkable increase in both urban and rural districts.

A marked decrease in drunkenness has been noted as a result of the increased sales of beer.

150 Breweries, representing an investment of hundreds of millions of dollars, are in operation throughout the State. There are nearly 24,000 hotels and saloons in the State. The traffic in alcoholic beverages pays an annual direct tax of nearly $20,000,000 to the State of New York in addition to other taxes; more than one-third of the entire State Budget.
