Study: Wisconsin Beer Drinkers Pay More For Their Drink Of Choice

It may come down to this — people in Wisconsin are just willing to pay more.  A study done by SimplyThrifty.com finds people in this state pay an average of three-dollars-a-case more for their beer than Illinois customers do.  The study found that Wisconsin beer drinkers pay an average of $18.22 for a 24-pack of Miller Lite or Bud Light, before taxes or fees.  That price is 15-20 in Illinois.  Wisconsin ranks 25th among the 50 states when it comes to the price it pays for the adult beverage.
