Recall on Bottled Stella Artois - Here's What You Need to Know

If you are a fan of Stella Artois like I am, then you really need to check your fridge and make sure you don't have any of these Stella bottles. The company announced a large recall on bottled Stell Artois.

According to the company's press release:

This recall comes after the detection of a glass packaging flaw in some 11.2-ounce (330ml) bottles that may cause a small piece of glass to break off and possibly fall into the beer. The potentially-affected bottles were manufactured by a third-party which is one of many supplying Stella Artois with glass bottles.
We made the decision to voluntarily recall certain packages potentially containing the affected 11.2-ounce (330ml) bottles as a precautionary measure to ensure the safety of our consumers.

Do you have any Stella Artois beer at your house? I do. I'll give you one guess as to what I'll be doing when I get home today.

Here is a rundown from their website on how to check if yours are okay or not:
