About This Style
What These Profiles Represent
U.S. TTB labeling rules distinguish several low-strength malt-beverage terms. Low alcohol or reduced alcohol labeling is limited to malt beverages below 2.5% ABV, non-alcoholic labeling requires less than 0.5% ABV with an adjacent statement, and alcohol-free labeling is reserved for malt beverages containing no alcohol.
Products below 0.5% ABV occupy a specific labeling category rather than a single brewing style. Federal rules require class terms such as malt beverage, cereal beverage, or near beer for products below 0.5% ABV, while industry and brewing references describe non-alcohol beer production as a mix of restricted fermentation, alcohol removal, blending, stabilization, and food-safety controls.
Manufacturer sources show different production approaches within the active DUI Professional records. Heineken describes Heineken 0.0 as brewed and fermented before vacuum distillation and blending, while Guinness describes Guinness 0.0 as brewed by St James Gate brewers before cold filtration removes alcohol.
The active DUI Professional Low-Alcohol beer profile set combines older low-alcohol rows around 2% ABV with current non-alcoholic and alcohol-free product records at 0.0% or less than 0.5% ABV. The database average is useful for screening only; For BAC simulation, use the selected drink record, pour volume, and product ABV.
Use these Low-Alcohol profiles to compare ABV, serving size, and estimated standard-drink dose before adding a drink to a simulation. For case work, start with the specific drink profile and then adjust pour volume, drink timing, and any case-specific assumptions.
