And I think you can strike Missouri from that list of 3.2 beer states. Their alcohol laws are such that they can sell pretty much anything anywhere, so I don't think anyone actually sells 3.2 beer. I always get a chuckle at QT in Missouri when the guy in front of me is buying a pint of Jim Beam or something.

In the bad old days, 3.2 beer in Missouri was often called "Sunday Beer" because it was the only beer you could buy at a retail store (as opposed to a restaurant) on Sunday.  However, most gas stations/convenience stores carried only 3.2 so they could sell it 7 days a week.  I'd be surprised if anyone sells 3.2 beer now in Missouri.

I wonder what will happen as fewer and fewer states have restrictive laws to create a market for 3.2 beer?  Maybe we're too far away for that to become a problem, but I assume at some point the 3.2 market could become small enough that brewers stop offering it because it's not worth the hassle.
