Lidl recalls MORE beer as shoppers told 'do not drink it' in urgent warning

Lidl has recalled more beer as it issued a warning for customers not to drink the affected products.

The supermarket is extending its original recall of Starovice Czech Lager 5.0% to include additional date codes.

The products that are included in the notice contain sulphur dioxide which is not mentioned on the label.

This means the product is a possible health risk for anyone with a sensitivity to sulphur dioxide and sulphites.

The original recall was for Starovice Czech Lager 5.0% with a best before date of October 16, 2022.

This has now been extended to include all dates up to, and including, December 23, 2022.

In a notice published online, Lidl said: “Lidl GB is recalling Starovice Czech Lager 5.0%, 500ml - all stock, due to undeclared sulphur dioxide which is an allergen.

“If you have bought the above product, and have an allergy or intolerance to sulphur dioxide, we advise you not to drink it.

“Instead, return it to a Lidl GB store for a full refund, with or without a receipt.

“The recall of this item has now been extended to include all best before dates.

“Lidl GB wishes to apologise for any inconvenience caused.”

Any customers with queries or concerns can contact Lidl customer services on 0370 444 1234 or by emailing customer.services@lidl.co.uk.

When a supermarket product is recalled, you usually don’t need your receipt to get your money back.

But if a recall involves a branded product, the manufacturer would usually have lead responsibility for the recall action.

For all product recalls, you can check the Food Standards Agency and Chartered Trading Standards Institute websites.

You should also notice recall notices in stores if they've pulled a product from shelves.

In other news, supermarkets and online retailers including Tesco, Aldi and Amazon have been forced to recall hundreds of chicken products over fears of a salmonella outbreak.

Pret A Manger has also withdrawn all items containing chicken from its shelves, while Waitrose and Marks and Spencer have pulled chicken products over the salmonella fears.

Other recalls to watch out for include soup that has been removed from Tesco stores over fears it may contain pieces of metal.

The supermarket is pulling its Tesco Chicken and Vegetable cup soup with croutons, priced at 80p.

The product affected by the recall has a best before date of October 2023 and the date code 2098.

The supermarket has also recalled a certain batch of Trewithen Dairy Unsalted Butter after some were found to contain "high levels" of E. coli bacteria.
