Can I have some "F***king Beer" please!?


So a German Brewery wanted to market a beer from the small Austrian village of 'F**king'. The European patent office said, f**k no! (Okay, they just said no.) They cited the swear word as the reason to not let them move forward.

But in an age where Family Guy and Tosh.0 rule the airwaves, oh and of course the small town called F**king, the firm finally won the rights to market their beer called, "F**king Hell Beer".

Start spending those marketing dollars!!!!

Here is an interesting article from Reuters in regards to the economy and spirits. I think it's pretty interesting that the big dogs are going forward now. This is not only a telling sign, but a great opportunity for brands to really make a name for themselves. Read where the suppliers are putting their money. Bar managers, talk to your distributor and start asking for the marketing programs being offered through their suppliers and help make a brand stronger! Article here.
