Alcohol recalled for containing too much alcohol.

There has been a nationwide recall on Bombay Sapphire Gin in Canada after it was reported that some bottles contain 77% alcohol by volume...instead of the 40% alcohol by volume it normally contains. That's like gin that's twice as strong!
You might think that would be a good thing, but yes, alcohol *can* contain too much alcohol.
CNNMoney reports that Canadian health authorities have called for a nationwide recall of Bombay Sapphire gin after discovering bottles containing nearly double the advertised amount of alcohol. [Source]
The good news is, no illnesses have been reported.
