Words that should never be in a beer's name
|
|
We've talked in the lousy labels thread about terrible labels that send the wrong message about a beer. I think as a field dominated by men, there is a fair bit of crudeness in beer naming, or inside-joke kinds of names that just seem dumb to anyone that would be buying the product. So what words should never be used in a beer's name?
Here's a few I've been thinking of:
Slobber
Knocker
Dog
"PG" Swear words like ass, bitch, etc.
Drool
Hair
Anyone else?

Light or the also popular Lite.

Reminded me of another word: Pabst. Not because the beer is bad, but because that word sounds vaguely like something to do with the gynecological field |
