The U.S. Food and Drug Administration is issuing final guidance to help manufacturers in labeling bottled or otherwise packaged beers that are subject to FDA’s labeling laws and regulations. The final guidance, which was issued in draft form in August 2009, follows a 2008 ruling by the Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB) clarifying that certain beers that do not meet the definition of “malt beverages” are not subject to the labeling provisions of the Federal Alcohol Administration Act.
