Jeremy Clarkson Warns Customers of Potential Explosion Risk in Hawkstone Cider Bottles
Jeremy Clarkson, the popular British television presenter, has issued a warning to customers who have purchased his Hawkstone Cider, cautioning them that a "slim chance" exists for some bottles to explode.
The cider, which was launched in 2021 and is produced using primary ingredients from Clarkson's 1,000-acre Diddly Squat farm in Chipping Norton, has been affected by a manufacturing error.
Clarkson made the announcement on Twitter, advising those who have purchased the affected cider to check the cap for the code L3160 and to open it underwater to avoid any risk of explosion.
He assured customers that the beer is unaffected and still delicious, except for the cider in the affected bottles.
The mistake that led to the potential explosion of some of the cider bottles was caused by a small amount of the cider over-fermenting, according to a post on Instagram by Hawkstone.
The brand also offered to replace the affected bottles or provide a refund to customers who have purchased the cider.
Clarkson has asked customers who have any bottles affected by the problem to get in touch and to send a photo of the cap to receive a fresh batch or a refund.
