Don’t worry, the waffles are safe, it’s the beer that’s in trouble…

News of ongoing labor strikes at a number of Belgium breweries have sent shakes of fear into the hearts of millions of beer drinkers around the world. Huge brands like Stella Artios and Hoegaarden are running desperately low as the picketing has now gone into its second week.

Where is Jermey Piven’s character from PCU when you need him? “We’re not going to protest, we’re not going to protest!”

Let’s just hope an agreement is reached soon, and I mean real soon, as happy hour is only a few hours away and NYC beer prices are already high enough – I don’t need the laws of ‘supply and demand’ affecting my bar tab!

Cheers!
