I plugged “alcohol tax” into google and came up with this site:

http://www.taxadmin.org/fta/rate/beer.html

http://www.taxadmin.org/fta/rate/liquor.html

http://www.taxadmin.org/fta/rate/wine.html

These are the state rates. I didn’t look for federal excise taxes, but the short answer to your question is “yes”.
