Trouble is brewing for beer drinkers in New York City and its suburbs.
Some 600 beer delivery workers went on strike Tuesday in a dispute with a major beer distributor serving New York City and the surrounding area. Their contract expired at midnight.
Employees with the Laundry, Distribution, and Food Service Joint Board Workers United/SEIU, or LDFS Union, began their strike at four of five Manhattan Beer & Beverage Distributors (MBBD) locations.
Workers turned out on the picket line at the MBBD's headquarters on East 149th Street in the Bronx. Others are picketing at MBBD facilities in Ridgewood, Queens, as well as in Wyandanch and Suffern.
