Manufacturer of Nonbeverage Products (MNBP)

Nonbeverage drawback alcohol is pure alcohol, the same as that used for consumption. However, when manufacturers use that alcohol in the production of a food, flavor, medicine, or perfume, and the Nonbeverage Products Laboratory approves the product as unfit for beverage purposes, they can claim a return on most of the distilled spirits excise tax paid.
