Fucking Hell (http://www.spiegel.de/international/zeitgeist/0,1518,686305,00.html)
Quote
The EU's trademarks authority has permitted a German firm to brew beer and produce clothing under the name "Fucking Hell". It may be an expletive in English, but in German it could refer to a light ale -- Hell -- from the Austrian town of Fucking. Whether it will be brewed there is another question.
nice name :)
Heh, cool.
Wonder if its the same company who makes Duff
I approve. Unfortunately, there's no mention which brewery is planning with this brand name.

Permitted? They could have denied them?
:lol: Those wacky Euros.
Only a cretin would use the phrase "fucking hell.*" It is oxymoronic and so idiotic.
* Except as a novelty name for beer. There, you get some decent free advertising for a very short time before the novelty wears off.
It should be Helles, not Hell :nerd:

I disagree. A place filled with nothing but women would be a fucking hell for me.

You would order "Ein Helles!", but the brand name could still be "hell":

Etc.
Dark beer, conversely, is often called "dunkel" if, like "Flensburger Dunkel".
:blush: Never saw that before. Our brewers here only use "Helles" and that's all I've seen used for imports.
I still think "F*cking Helles" would sound more clever.

Fixed.

You shouldn't. The fact that you can actually taste something might shock your senses, unlike that Miller Lite you drink :P
