Marketing
I would like to ask native English speakers (preferably) to share their opinions on the choice of words describing the features of a beer:
top/finest/supreme quality, natural/finest/supreme/ prime ingredients
Probably most are grammatical and correct, but in any language there are phrases which just 'sound right'
My choice is 'finest quality, natural ingredients' by I will more than welcome your comments.
Also, in some markets there are specific laws prohibiting the use of the word 'natural'. If 'natural' cannot be used, which word combination would appeal the strongest to a native speaker?
TIA

top quality, finest ingredients
It's just a matter of preference, there's no one right answer, but this would be my choice, and covers the possibility that "natural" could not be used; I don't think I would use it anyway.

Finest Quality, Superior Taste
I think you need to look at the target market, If it is a top shelf beer, or a beer for the female market, then you would use more superlative words.
If it is for a low grade beer, then maybe words for the masses.
I have no idea why you would want ingredients there, as people buy beer on taste, quality and alcoholic content.
The Ingredients are all natural in beer anyhow, hops yeast, sugar etc
there are some Fruit and grain beers. but they all use natural ingredients.
(Beer is just the fermentation from something going rotten)
Finest Quality, superior taste.
supreme quality, superior taste
superior Quality, finest taste
