Pennsylvania HB457 mandates warning labels on alcohol containers in distilleries, wineries, and bonded warehouses.

Pennsylvania HB457 amends the Liquor Code to require warning labels on alcohol containers. Specifically, it mandates that all containers of alcohol or liquor in wholesale quantities must have a label stating the manufacturer's name, the kind and quantity of alcohol, the manufacture date, and the license number. Additionally, a prominent warning label must state, "WARNING: There is a direct link between alcohol and fatal cancers." This applies to all persons involved in the manufacture, production, distillation, or transportation of alcohol or liquor, except those exempted by section five.
