Elimination of Certain Standards of Fill for Distilled Spirits; Amendment of Malt Beverage Net Contents Labeling Regulation

The Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB) is proposing to eliminate certain standards of fill for distilled spirits containers, aiming to reduce unnecessary regulatory requirements and provide consumers with more purchasing options. The TTB seeks comments on this proposed deregulation and alternatives, such as adding new standards of fill or developing an expedited process for future additions.
