WeWork is restricting the amount of free beer available to members in a New York-based pilot, a move it denied was related to a recent lawsuit. The company said Friday that its new policy will limit the number of beers served at each location from one per customer to two per customer. WeWork said the new policy was not related to the lawsuit, and that the software to manage the provision of alcohol at its offices was something its had been working on for some time. WeWork has rejected Anaya's claims and is contesting the case.
