TTB Public COLA Registry

The Public COLA Registry holds every approved, expired, surrendered or revoked Certificate of Label Approval (TTB F 5100.31) for wine, distilled spirits and malt beverages. It needs no registration or password. It is also the only parameterised, addressable lookup TTB documents anywhere: GET publicSearchColasBasic.do?action=publicDisplaySearchBasic&ttbid= followed by a 14-character TTB ID returns that COLA's detail page. The response is rendered HTML rather than JSON or XML, so a machine consumer must scrape it.
