Abstract: The article discusses the important distinction between and policy implications of alibi marketing and surrogate marketing of alcohol-free and low-alcohol products. Topics covered include the absence of the core brand name in alibi marketing, and the suggested labeling of core-branded alcohol-free and low-alcohol products as surrogate marketing or brand sharing with the regular-strength brands. Also noted is the possible marketing co-existence of these two alcohol product types.
