		Additionally, the collector of federal tax revenue derived from the production of tobacco and liquor products originally handled by ATF were transferred to the newly established Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB), which remained within the Treasury Department.

	NCL NEWS: “Alcohol Facts” Label Proposed for Beer, Wine, and Liquor
		The petition urges the agency to require a new label for alcoholic beverages that would give consumers clear information about alcohol content, serving sizes, calories, and ingredients.
		Rules governing alcoholic-beverage labeling suffer from jurisdictional gaps between the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the Treasury Department’s Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB, formerly the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms).
		“Consumers who are seeking to moderate their alcohol intake have a right to know how much alcohol is in a serving and how many servings are in a given container,” Golodner said.

		Standardized label information about the alcohol and calorie content of alcoholic beverages will be an important tool for adults to make more informed decisions about how much, if any, alcohol they should consume.
		Grams of alcohol, carbohydrates, fats and proteins The number of calories per 1 gram of alcohol, carbohydrates, fat and protein (7, 4, 9,4 respectively) We also urge that the label contain information from the Dietary Guidelines for Americans 2005, that suggests a limit of two standard drinks per day for men and one for women.
		Further, because alcohol beverages may contain major food allergens, such as sulfites and glutens, it would also be helpful if TBB requires the labels of all alcoholic beverages to identify any major food allergens present in the product.
