We take great pride in the quality of our beer. As we've expanded into additional package formats, we encountered an intermittent source of microbial spoilage within our canning line that affected the quality of some products.

We are optimistic that the source of the issue has been identified and addressed, and we will continue to monitor our packaging runs closely to prevent it from recurring.

The issue was intermittent and affected some packaging runs more than others. Any affected product is safe to drink and does not represent a food safety concern; however, if your beer is affected, it will have a noticeable unpleasant smell and taste—it’s highly unlikely you’ll drink a whole can.

Our team worked around the clock to resolve the issue and remains committed to releasing only the highest quality products. Our products continue to undergo laboratory and sensory testing, allowing us to identify quality issues. When we've identified affected product, we've worked closely with our retail partners to quickly remove it from shelves. We believe we're through it—thank you for sticking with us while we hold ourselves to our standard.

If you believe you have purchased affected beer, or if our product doesn't meet your expectations in any other way, we'd like to make it right and will happily replace the product. Tracking these occurrences helps us continue to improve our quality processes.

Please email beer@littlebrownjug.ca with:

1. A photo of the date code printed on the bottom of the affected can(s), including the date, time and batch.
2. Where it was purchased.
3. The package format, such as a single, 8-pack or 15-pack.

Nothing like LBJ brews on tap! You can purchase LBJ beers in 19 L and 50 L kegs through our website. Peruse the beer section of our online store and click “shop all sizes” to see if there is a keg option for that style.

If you are having a kegger—where is our invite?—don’t forget to add the handpump to pour your beer. A $100 deposit is required. Upon checkout, a $100 keg deposit will be added to your cart. You are required to pay this deposit for each keg ordered. Once a keg is returned, the deposit is returned to your account.

If you have your own keg you want filled, send us a message and we will do our best to tell you when we are kegging your favourite brew next.

We are beyond dog-friendly; we are dog obsessed. You are welcome to bring your well-mannered pooch for a visit on our patio anytime. We will bring your K9 friend some water so that we have an excuse to pet them and tell them what a good doggie they are.

Our namesake Little Brown Jug 750 mL bottles can be returned to us for a $2 refund. No need to wash them; we take care of the dirty work.

Growlers (1.89 L) are non-refundable. At this time, unfortunately, we cannot refill growlers.
