Beer Contamination record? :-)

Post by timmse »

Carlsberg Denmark had to discard 3.3 million cans of beer today, due to bacterial contamination that clouded the beer and made it tast sour! That has to be some sort of record.

Discard?

Note they said they had to "discard" the beer, not pour it out. Somewhere, there was one Hell of a party. ;)
