Sam Adams Recall

Looks like they got a batch of bad bottles from a supplier:

Quote:
The Boston Beer Co. is recalling roughly 25 percent of the beer bottles it recently shipped after it discovered defects that might cause bits of glass to break off and fall into the bottles.

Michelle Sullivan, a spokeswoman for the South Boston-based brewer of Samuel Adams beers, said on Monday that the bottles were supplied by Owens-Illinois Inc.’s plant in Auburn, N.Y.

Sullivan said the company doesn’t yet know how many bottles are affected. But she said the company estimates that fewer than one million bottles need to be recalled.

Company executives believe that fewer than 1 percent of the bottles from the Auburn plant are defective. But they can’t tell where the defective bottles ended up, so they are recalling all the bottles made at the plant.

“Every one of their bottles is suspect,” Sullivan said of Owen-Illinois’ Auburn plant. “We don’t want beer on the shelves that doesn’t meet our standards. That’s our No. 1 priority.”

Boston Beer hasn’t received any consumer complaints of any injury related to the defect, Sullivan said. She said no draft beers or Twisted Tea bottles were affected. This is the first recall in the company’s 24-year-history, she said.

The affected bottles are embossed with the following markings: The letter “N,” followed by the number “35,” followed by the letters “OI.”

Consumers who have already purchased the bottles are advised to throw them away and seek a refund from the company. For more information, customers can call The Boston Beer Co. at 1-888-674-5159 or access the company’s recall Web site at consumerinfo.samadams.com.

Re: Sam Adams Recall

I only drink my Sam Adams from a tap. I'm safe.
