Craig’s Favorite – Coors Light, Being Pulled From Shelves After Tik Tok Videos Showing “Slime Beer”
Some very troubling videos have been popping up on Tik Tok of Coors Light and Keystone Light cans of beer being filled with what only be described as "slime". It was stressed that this is not a recall, but a very specific 'withdrawal' of certain 12 packs . According to Vinepair, its " a voluntary withdrawal of select packages of 12-ounce cans of Coors Light and Keystone Light brewed at the company’s Trenton Brewery in Ohio. A spokesperson for Molson Coors repeatedly emphasized that the withdrawal is not a recall, highlighting that the beers do not pose any food-related safety threats. " I know that Coors Light is Craig's fave and this potentially affects his Wednesday night.
Here's the affected 12 packs:
Coors Light 12 Pack 12oz. Cans
UPC: 00-71990-00048

If you have any questions, the Molson Coors quality hotline is 1-800-645-5376. This seems to be a very isolated incident. Coors has not made a statement on the cause. In an email to Snopes, a spokesperson wrote:
"At Molson Coors, quality is our top priority, so when we recently became aware of a quality issue on some packs of Coors Light and Keystone Light produced at the Trenton Brewery, we chose to voluntarily withdraw those packs from the market. While we have chosen to voluntarily withdraw these packs, there are no food health risks associated with the product. The issue was with one can line that exclusively produces 12 oz tall cans, it impacted a only a small percentage of cans produced on the line and it has since been resolved. Work is already underway to replenish inventory as quickly as possible and because our national inventory position on these SKUs is stronger than it has been in years we are able to divert production into this market area from other breweries beginning this week.”
Oh the Tik Tok videos? I was getting to that.
