Ahh...glass in my beer!

I like my beer with some bite anyways, so it's all good for me!

Boston Beer Co. (SAM) initiated a voluntary recall of select 12-ounce glass bottles of its Samuel Adams beer after quality-control inspections detected that certain bottles may contain defects that may cause small bits of glass to break off and fall into the bottle. The recall comes after routine quality control inspections at the company’s Cincinnati brewery detected defects in cer-
tain beer bottles, made by a third-party glass bottle supplier that might cause small bits of glass to break off and possibly fall into the bottle.
Boston Beer said the Cincinnati plant supplies about 25% of its bottles, but the company believes the number of bottles from this plant that actually contain glass is “significantly” less than 1%.
