Section 2.19 Labels and Size of Containers to be Approved by Director.

The contents of all labels affixed to containers of controlled beverages and the size and combination of such containers shall be approved by the Director. In no event shall any label or design be approved by the Director which contains any statement, design, device or representation which is obscene or indecent. Any product that does not meet the criteria for TTB COLA or Certification of Exemption, (such as IRC beers or ciders under 7% ABV), shall submit the following: proposed label(s), lab certificate of analysis, and a certification that the product does not qualify for TTB COLA or Certificate of Exemption. Any Primary American Source (PAS) submitting a brand registration to the agency for distribution of a product shall, in addition to all other requirements, submit to the Alcoholic Beverage Control Division a copy of the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB) Certificate of Label Approval (COLA) or a Certificate of Exemption from label approval. Any PAS that wishes to register a product for sale where the PAS has obtained a Certificate of Exemption from the TTB and any PAS that cannot be issued a COLA or Certificate of Exemption by TTB shall certify to the Director that the labels will still comply with TTB labeling criteria as found in the "Federal Alcohol Administration Act" Title 27 CFR Subchapter A - Liquors, Part 4, Subpart D. Section 4.39, Part 5, Subpart D, Section 5.42, Part 7, Subpart C, Section 7.29. Beer, light wine, and malt beverage products may submit a COLA width an updated label; provided only amended labels with TTB permitted changes will be accepted. If the ABV on the amended label differs from the COLA, a certificate of lab analysis must accompany the submission. In no instance shall permitted containers of spirituous beverages be less than one hundred (100) ml, vinous beverages or wine be less than one hundred eighty-seven (187) ml or beer or malt liquor be less than one hundred sixty-nine (169) ml or five and seventy-five hundredths (5.75) ounces.
