British pubs are facing the prospect of a beer shortage, as the union for one of the United Kingdom’s largest brewery-delivery companies plans to go on strike at the end of the month.
Around 1,000 employees at GXO Logistics, which is responsible for nearly 40 percent of beer deliveries to pubs and clubs in the United Kingdom, plan on walking out for five days, between Oct. 31 and Nov. 4, for the first round of strikes, according to their union in a statement on Oct. 18.
