If the ruling gets approves, all alcohol labels would list the percentage of calories, fat, protein and carbohydrates in addition to the percent of alcohol by volume. The labels would also include a "serving facts" panel.
The new proposal by the Treasury Department of the Treasury's Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau applies to beer, wine and liquor. It would be the prerogative of the companies to disclose the amount of pure alcohol, or ethyl alcohol, per serving.
The proposal would give the industry three years to phase in the new labels.
