These wine crystals in my Red Piquette made me panic for a moment

Edit:

The original title of my post was

"Anyone know what these little shards would be I found in my can I got from 2 Crows Brewery?"

and the text below said

"I'm not sure if it's glass or some kind of settlement that accumulated at the bottom.

It is rather hard. I can't crush it easily with my fingers and it doesn't feel sharp enough to cut me. It has a pink colour to it."

but I contacted 2 Crows and they got back to me really quick.

They are wine crystals!

I had never heard of them before.

I edited the title because I don't want people to be concerned. I love 2 Crows.

  • Here's two more pictures.

  • Huh, I had never heard on wine crystals before now. On another note, is 2 crows any good? I love supporting local industries so if they're based here in nova scotia I'm happy to give them a shot.

    Absolute shame I can't stand propeller or no boats on Sunday. I do love ironworks though great rum

    • Yeah I'm a big fan. Their beers can be a bit bitter and tart at times but they have a decent variety.

  • Serves ya right for drinking that weak sauce. 4.4%? Middle school mixers have punch that's spiked stronger. How do they make that, anyhow? Leave juiceboxes in the sun?
