Abstract: As required by 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, which are contained in 27 CFR parts 4, 5, and 7, respectively. The FAA Act provides that these regulations should, among other things, prohibit consumer deception and the use of misleading statements on labels and ensure that labels provide the consumer with adequate information as to the identity and quality of the product. Under the TTB 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 provided with adequate, legible, and non-deceptive or misleading information as to the identity and quality of such products.
