Great Lakes Brewery is now producing non-kosher flavored beers. At this time we cannot recommend their products.
Editor’s note: Great Lakes recently announced a 30th Anniversary Imperial Oyster Stout that was produced in their main brewery.
H in OH says
Great Lakes Brewery has several beers that they claim are flavored, such as Holy Moses with orange and coriander flavors, and therefore would not be assumed to be kosher like non-flavored beer.
Are you announcing that all their beers, even those that are not claimed to be flavored, are also no longer under the standard assumed kashrus of beer?
Beer lover says
I would assume, that those flavors also likely treif up the rest of the line. Hopefully they get a hechsher. Beer is getting more complicated and with so many great beers getting hechshers there is less reason to risk it
JK says
In the past, their oyster beer was not made in the main brewery but rather in their bar breweries. According to the editors note they are now making it in the main brewery which is a concern of “cross-contamination”.
