The TMB Good Beer Thread

I can post a link when the detail come out for next year.

 

Picked up some Pizza Port

 

I've got a trip planned to Atlanta in the middle of July. What are the chances I can get my hands on some of Creature Comforts good stuff?

 

100%

 

That's my favorite Creature beer. Couldn't make it up today, which I'm pretty bummed about.

 

Just had troll so hard from J Wake

What in the name of fucking Gatorade

 

I’ll be out of town this week and Memorial Day weekend, but if I have a few left afterward, I’d be happy to trade a few. And I think I will. Have Cosmik Debris and Get Comfortable, too.

 

I'd love to do that. I have/can get plenty of good stuff to send your way.

 

Boop

What a day to forget the cooler at home and only to realize it once I got to the cape. Thankfully it's just a weekend trip.

 

Yeee

 

I remember looking at the Casa registration stuff before. Don't you need a proxy to pick it up/send it?

 

You look just as hazy as I imagined

 

All-in-all a success so far. First time they've done done a line for cans outside separate from the brewery entrance and it was brutal. 85+ degrees with mostly clear skies and no shade. I was 25-30th in line and spent 85 minutes out there. Luckily I put on sunscreen, some people got roasted. But everything has been great except the super icebox gose.

 

I'll continue the Jets Overhead theme

 

Southern Grist Brewing Contact Hive - NE IPA with El dorado, citra, local wild flower honey, tangerine peel, purple haze and tangi terpenes. Fantastic.

 

Is that their own or the one they did with Twisted Trunk? Their 2 year party was way too much fun.

 

Twisted Trunk I believe.

 

The ones Twisted Trunk brought to the 2 year party were like drinking a liquid nug. Shits wild

 

This is the best day of my life

 

Thanks pratyk

 

I will try every Flora if it kills me

 

You do what you want when you’re poppin

And Shaun Hill is definitely poppin

 

Yeah that's lame and probably not protectable, in my experience.

 

Breweries are all about some dumb shit like that

 

FWIW they’ve had Farmstead as a registered trademark on all their bottles and cans for years

 

Nah, not the word Farmstead, the whole name. If you look at USPTO they aren't even the only brewery with farmstead in a trademarked name.

 

I know fuck all about trademark law but the R has been next to Farmstead on their shit for a long time

 

Interesting. Maybe they do. That's a common word, though.

Edit: it appears they do. Only since 2016 though.

I don't blame them for contesting it though, they have to contest everything. (this is part of my job)

 

Lawyers claiming copyright/trademark disputes is the new thing per the 100 lawyers at CBC this year.

 

The problem is if you don't contest even the smallest infringements it can come back to bite you in the ass on the big ones.

 

I think even Anchorage Brewing sent a politely worded fuck off to a brewery that made also made a beer named A Deal with the Devil even though it’s not trademarked so I believe it

 

Also it looks like one of the guys in the Hill Enthusiasts Facebook group I’m in saw the post and snitched to Hill

So that’s sort of wack but at that point you kind of have to say something

 

Trademark in beer is a bitch. Our core IPA is now called intellectual property ale (aka IPA). We have a federal trademark on the name now lol.

 

That's amazing
