What a farcical state we live in. What possible non-malign reason is there to not require it? Why was this not done nearly two decades ago?

It shocked me to learn that alcohol content wasn’t already a required element of alcoholic product labels. Even knowing that alcohol is outside the purview of the FDA, it seems it would at least be relevant for taxation!

Stout wins! It is already classified as food in Ireland, whisky bieng of course, a much more serious endevour.
