Abstract:
Under the authority of the Federal Alcohol Administration Act (FAA Act) at 27 U.S.C. 205(e) and (f), TTB has issued regulations regarding the labeling and advertising of wine, distilled spirits, and malt beverages. The FAA Act provides that these regulations should, among other things, prohibit consumer deception and the use of misleading statements on labels and in advertisements of alcohol beverages and ensure that such labels and advertisements provide the consumer with adequate information as to the identity and quality of the product. Under these regulations, bottlers and importers of alcohol beverages must provide certain mandatory information and adhere to certain presentation standards for statements made on labels and in advertisements of alcohol beverages to ensure that consumers are not deceived or mislead about a product’s identity and quality. In Notice No. 176, Modernization of the Labeling and Advertising Regulations for Wine, Distilled Spirits, and Malt Beverages, a proposed rule published in the Federal Register on November 26, 2018 (83 FR 60562), TTB is proposing to comprehensively amend and reorganize its regulations governing the labeling and advertising of alcohol beverages. The regulatory revisions proposed in Notice No. 176 are intended to simplify and clarify TTB’s alcohol beverage labeling and advertising regulatory standards, and incorporate statutory changes, international agreements, recent case law, and current TTB guidance documents and policy into the regulations. TTB believes these changes will improve understanding of its regulatory requirements and to make compliance easier and less burdensome for industry members.
