Owens-Illinois, Inc., today acknowledged that it manufactured the bottles involved in The Boston Beer Company's voluntary recall of select 12-ounce bottles of its Samuel Adams beer.
Notwithstanding references in The Boston Beer Company recall notice to the bottles being defective, O-I's investigation to date has indicated that the glass containers supplied to The Boston Beer Company were manufactured to O-I's normal manufacturing specifications and tolerances. O-I will continue to investigate the root cause of the issue, which is currently unknown.
