SAO PAULO, May 7 A beer taster for a Brazilian brewery won almost $50,000 in a court battle against the company, alleging he became an alcoholic while working there.
The employee for Ambev, a leading Brazilian brewery, said the company did not provide health care in the event a beer taster developed alcoholism, O Globo reported Monday.
A previous court had ruled in favor of Ambev, saying the company was not responsible for the unidentified man's affliction.
The employee said he drank on average about 20 small beers ever day at work.
