In addition, a fee of $6 is charged per ton of grapes or per 160 gallons of grape juice produced in the state. Fiscal year 2005 Missouri alcohol tax collections make up 0.16% of the state’s total tax collections and the burden (percent of personal income paid in taxes) on Missouri taxpayers ranks 40th of the 50 states.
