Beer strike threatens campus bars
A province-wide strike of brewers had many students panicking about the beer supply on campus. The Turret had stockpiled as much beer as their storage would allow; however, the bar predicted that it likely only had enough beer to last two weeks. After a Saturday night, the estimated two week supply was downgraded to one week. At the time, the Turret was not equipped for draught beer; therefore, purchasing kegs was not an option.
