*** 10 BARREL BREWING *** Recalling Swill!
"A Note from 10 Barrel Brewing Company - We Are Voluntarily Recalling SwillTo our retailers and consumer friends, 10 Barrel Brewing Company is conducting a voluntary recall of Swill in all 12 and 22 ounce bottles. It has come to our attention that some of this product may be experiencing secondary fermentation in the bottle, causing over carbonation. This consistency issue does not meet 10 Barrel Brewing's quality standards and, as a precaution, we are removing all inventory of Swill from our wholesalers and retail shelves and we are asking that consumers immediately dispose of any Swill already purchased. Swill is brewed with a completely different process than any of our other beers, isolating this issue to only Swill. This recall does not affect any of 10 Barrel Brewing's other products.
Consumers: if you have any Swill in your home, please do not open it, attempt to transport it, or return it to your retail store. Dispose of the product by following these steps: (i) Before disposing of any bottles of Swill, please put on protective gloves and eye wear; (ii) Place all remaining Swill bottles in a closed box and place immediately in a secured dumpster or trash container outside.
We take the utmost pride in producing an extremely high quality product and continuously striving for new and innovative beers to send to the consumer. Unfortunately in this instance, despite a rigorous testing and brewing quality-check process, we didn't hit the mark. We have an amazing new beer coming out in a few weeks to replace it so keep an eye out for something new in stores.
If you have any questions regarding this voluntary recall, please call 10 Barrel Brewing at (541) 678-5427 or send an email to [email protected]. If you have any of the potentially affected product and would like a refund, you can use the same phone number or email address."
*** WOODLAND EMPIRE & HIGHLANDS HOLLOW *** Collaboration on "High Five Double IPA" on tap around town!
*** CROOKED FLATS *** "Brew it Forward at Crooked Flats" is a great way to give back to the community that we live and work in. If you know of or work/volunteer for an Idaho non-profit and would like to be a part of this fundraising opportunity please email a request to [email protected] for consideration. Please include a contact person and details about the non-profit.
*** CROOKED FENCE BREWING *** We are very excited to announce the new CFB benefit brew... Crooked Fence Brewing Co., Boise Rock School & Boise Fry Co. have teamed up to raise money for "Rock on Wheels" a non-profit ran by Boise Rock School that teaches music in local schools that no longer offer music programs for students. This beer will release in Boise Fry Co. locations this fall. More info coming very soon... 
*** BOISE BREWING *** Every time you buy a pint of Hard Guy saison anywhere in the universe, a portion of the proceeds go to Ridge to Rivers!
