Title: Labeling of Sulfites in Alcoholic
Beverages.
OMB Number: 1513–0084.
Abstract: As mandated by law, and in
accordance with our consumer
protection responsibilities, TTB requires
label disclosure statements on all
alcoholic beverage products released
from U.S. bottling premises or customs
custody that contain 10 parts per

agents have been shown to produce
allergic-type responses in humans,
particularly asthmatics, and the
presence of these ingredients in alcohol
beverages may have serious health
implications for those who are
intolerant of sulfites. Disclosure of
sulfites on labels of alcohol beverages
will minimize their exposure to these
ingredients.
