TORONTO, June 9 (Reuters) - The recession has forced somecompanies to cut pensions and others to curtail retireebenefits, but Molson Canada is turning off the taps in aliteral sense. Stocks The brewer will no longer supply its 2,400 retirees withfree beer, which currently costs the company about C$1 million($900,000) a year, the Toronto Star newspaper reported. Molson, a division of Molson Coors (TAP.N), said it waslooking to cut costs and to "standardize" its complimentarybeer policy.

The company's retirees in the province of Newfoundland andLabrador, for example, will see their monthly allotment fallfrom six dozen bottles of beer a month to zero over the nextfive years. Current Molson workers will still receive complimentarybeer, but see their allotment drop from 72 dozen bottles a yearto 52 dozen. "There was no consultation, we just received a letter thatthis is a done deal, which is totally unfair," Bill Bavis, whoretired six years ago after 32 years at Molson's in St John's,Newfoundland, told the Star. "I think with the economicdownturn they're trying to take advantage of us, as a way tocut retirees' benefits and justify it." Unions have launched grievances in Montreal and Vancouver,where the retirees' allotment is less than in Newfoundland. A spokesman for Molson said the company feels it still hasa very generous benefits package.
