(UNDATED) Health and policy experts say Wisconsin could reduce over-consumption of alcohol by raising the liquor tax and making it less available.
Data on Wisconsinâ??s drinking habits show beer is the most popular choice and that availability of alcohol in general is high. Paul Moberg with the UW-Madisonâ??s Population Health Institute says on average, there is a liquor license for every 336 people in Wisconsin. Iron County has the most bars and liquor stores per capita and Waukesha County, the fewest.
