MONTGOMERY — Tensions among several union employees at The Superior Beverage Co. — a wholesaler of Anheuser-Busch beers — have come to a head.
Twenty-seven beer-truck drivers and warehouse workers went on strike effective at 4 a.m. Tuesday after contract talks stalled, said John Majewski, president and business representative of West Chicago-based Teamsters Local 673.

Typically, a fleet of 13 beer trucks is deployed each weekday from the distribution center at Orchard Road and Rochester Drive, and each driver makes 15 to 20 stops, Majewski said. The company remained open for business, and management officials said it continued to make deliveries."

PHEW!!!!!
