CONSUMER ADVISORY
SUSPECTED TAMPERING IN STELLA ARTOIS BEER
OTTAWA, July 12, 2007 - The Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) and Labatt Breweries of Canada are advising the public that some Stella Artois beer bottles may have been tampered with.
The CFIA was advised of six bottles suspected of being tampered with in which concentrated alcohol was introduced into 330 ml Stella Artois beer bottles bearing the best before end of 11.2005 or 12.2005 and production codes of L32343T and L35243G. These codes have expired and should no longer be in the marketplace. These suspected tampering incidents occurred with beer sold at restaurants and bars in Toronto, Ontario and Kamloops, British Columbia. There are no reported incidents involving products purchased at beer or liquor stores. Stella Artois cans and draft beer are not affected.
A stupid alert. If you’re drinking Stella Artois beer bottles bearing the best before end of 11.2005 or 12.2005,
you’re drinking at the wrong bar.
