Bottles of Constellation Brands beer brand Corona Extra have been recalled after it transpired that those which have been sold in 12-packs and 18-packs may contain traces of glass.
The issue was flagged at an AB InBev brewery, which is making some Constellation Brands beer products on an interim basis.
In a statement, Paul Hetterich, the president of Constellation Brands Beer Division, said, "The safety and well-being of consumers is our top priority and we take matters pertaining to the quality of our products very seriously.
"Since learning of this issue, we immediately began working with AB InBev and jointly took prompt action to investigate the issue. We're actively working with our distributor partners and retailers to quickly resolve the matter. We're committed to doing everything possible to complete this recall quickly and ensure the safety of our consumers and integrity of our products."
Only bottles sold in the US and Guam are subject to the recall.
