Brew York advised that any customer who has bought a can from this batch should dispose of them safely. The brewery added: “If you have a can, we advise storing this in a cold environment (a fridge is perfect).

“To safely dispose of the can, we advice submerging this in water (a full sink is perfect) with the ring pull facing away from you, and carefully opening this whilst wearing hand and eye protection as a precaution. Once any initial pressure has been released and you’re confident it appropriate to do so, continue to empty the can.”

Customers who are affected by the recall can contact Brew York via [email protected] with an images of the affected can(s) and its base which clearly show the Gyle number and best before date. The company added: “Once received, we will issue a coupon for use on our website to cover the cost of the can, as well as a little extra on us as an apology.”
