Breaking News on the Boston beer front! Boston Beer Company is voluntarily recalling select 12 ounce glass bottles of Sam Adams. As the press release describes, “The affected products are embossed on the base of the bottles with the following marking: The letter ‘N’ followed by the number ‘35′ followed by the letters ‘OI’.” They think less than 1% of the bottles being recalled actually have the glass in them, but are doing the right thing in recalling them all. Thankfully, no one has been hurt so far by these bottles, and hopefully no one will be. This is the first recall ever for Sam Adams. Though this is an unfortunate situation, I think that Sam Adams and the Boston Beer Company are doing the right thing. Tell your friends and make sure to check your own bottles!
However, on a very happy note, I saw Sam Adams Summer Ale on tap for the first time this past Saturday. The Pour House, my favorite Saturday Night dinner place, proudly displayed the highlight of summer seasonal beers. It’s refreshing, slightly tangy and perfect for the hot summer days I am so looking forward to. Cheers and keep up the good work, BBC!
