Abstract: Under the authority of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) at 26 U.S.C. 5412 and the Federal Alcohol Administration Act (FAA Act) at 27 U.S.C. 205(e), the TTB regulations require consumer containers of beer to be marked with the name and address of the brewer. In the case of brewers that operate multiple breweries, the TTB regulations in 27 CFR parts 7 and 25 allow brewers to label beer containers with their principal place of business, provided that the brewer also places a code on each beer container indicating its actual place of production. This option allows multi-plant brewers to use an identical label at all of their breweries. The labeling of beer containers with the producer’s name and place of production is a usual and customary business practice undertaken by brewers to identify their products to consumers and facilitate recall of adulterated products. In addition, TTB uses the required information to verify tax refund claims for the loss or destruction of beer.
