    Better safe than sorry. Just saved a lot of angry "customers."

    Ah well. It sounded delicious, but way better that they caught this early.

    This was a great business decision. That said, I'm sorry I can't drink one.

    The bottles may still be fine... They're stress testing them now. I think that means they are holding some at a high temperature to expedite the growth of any infection.

    Homebrewing noob question: why not pasteurize the bottles if the potential infection hasn't impacted the taste yet?

    Pretty sure pasteurization has an effect on flavor and limits shelf life of the beer. Plus I doubt CCB has the necessary equipment.

    pasteurization is pretty awesome but also very expensive.

    Just toss the bottles in a hopper and throw it in the mash tun for a couple minutes....good to go :grinning:

    PS...was really looking forward to this one to compare with the Nooner B4 in regards to the barrel flavor :slight_frown:
