Same 0.3% ceiling applies; no beverage-specific state rule identified. New Hampshire's ceiling is unusually explicit and form-agnostic: RSA 439-A:4 names delta-9 THC 'in any formulation' directly, applying the same 0.3% dry-weight total-THC ceiling across every hemp-derived product form with no exemption for raw flower or any other category (contrast Montana's flower carve-out). Because the ban text sweeps in delta-8 and 'any other THC isomer variant' alongside delta-9 by name, this reads as a clean, low-ambiguity restricted-not-illegal ceiling: compliant (<=0.3%) hemp-derived delta-9 products are lawful, non-compliant ones are barred by statute, with no interpretive gray zone comparable to Nebraska's AG-enforcement theory.
Nothing in this chapter shall be construed to authorize the sale of products that are derived from hemp which contain natural or synthetic tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) greater than 0.3 percent on a dry weight basis, which appear in any formulation, including delta-8 THC, delta-9 THC, or any other THC isomer variant.
