Molson, Coors Light and Other Beers Recalled in Canada over Metal Pieces
Health Canada said consumers should not drink the affected products, and retailers were told to stop selling them immediately.
On Monday, the Canadian Food Inspection Agency recalled 29 varieties of alcoholic and non-alcoholic beer nationwide, citing potential metal contamination in the beverages.
Popular brands including Molson Canadian, Coors Light, Black Horse, Blue Moon, Brasseur de Montréal, Hop Valley, and India Beer are affected, according to Molson Coors.
Consumers should compare their products against UPCs and lot codes listed on the CFIA website, while retailers have been instructed to immediately stop selling the affected items.
Classified as Class III, the recall indicates low health risk; spokesperson Ryan McKenna stated, "We have not received any notification of consumer harm to date."
In Atlantic Canada, Molson Coors confirmed specific drinks are affected, including products packaged at the St. John's brewery, as noted in a statement Wednesday afternoon.
