Lucky Saint recalls Hazy IPA over can rupture risk

Lucky Saint has recalled four-packs of its 0.5 Hazy IPA after the Food Standards Agency warned that some cans could become overpressurised and rupture, potentially causing injury. Consumers are being told not to open or drink the affected product and to dispose of it carefully. The recall applies to packs of four 330ml cans bearing a best-before date of August 13, 2027. The FSA warning says cans may swell, leak or rupture unexpectedly. The reports do not state how many cans or production batches are affected, what caused the potential overpressure, or whether any injuries or ruptures have been confirmed. Consumers who have bought the affected packs should handle them as little as possible, keep them upright, place them carefully in a sealed bag and put them in household waste, according to the disposal guidance. They should not return the cans to the store. Retailers selling the product have been asked to display notices informing customers of the recall. The product has been sold through major retailers, including Tesco, Sainsbury’s, Morrisons and Waitrose, as well as online through Amazon and Ocado, according to one report.
