How this list works

Ranked by alcohol by volume as printed on the TTB-approved label. Batched pour-overs aren't in the registry (bottles above 16% ABV, cans and pouches above 20%), so this is strength per single-serve can, pouch, or bottle. To keep one flavor line from filling the list, each brand appears at most twice.

445 of 445 published cans qualify. A label approval can come weeks before a can reaches shelves, so some of these may not be in stores yet.
