Interesting! I wonder if other countries will follow suit and if alcohol packaging will eventually go the way of tobacco labels. I also wonder if it will have less of an effect than tobacco labelling -- so often you get a drink at a restaurant or bar where the consumer wouldn't see the labels, compared to a cigarette that's almost always purchased as a back by the smoker.

The 'warning panel' can be printed on the menu above the alcoholic drinks section. Most people won't look at it, but that's true of tobacco labelling too.
