You can't (well, shouldn't) mislabel your beverage's ABV. It's trivial to test and thus determine that you're lying, and the result would be a hugely costly recall of all product.
The accuracy requirements are very strict on this. It's already not a problem; intentionally lying about ABV on the label would be a foolish thing to do that would get you in lots of trouble.
