Google announced that they have reduced the restrictions on advertising hard alcohol and liqueur through AdWords for ads that target the United States. Previously, there was a complete ban on advertising hard alcohol and liqueur. Under the new policy, advertising that promotes information, such as recipes and brand messages is permitted, but directly promoting the sale hard alcohol and liqueur is not permitted.
