My wife suggested using Qhrumphf in it. Because that is used by no one anywhere but me, and I can claim usage of the term for years (albeit via online handles, beer related and otherwise). But I don't think that'll work from a marketing perspective. But I suppose it's memorable enough. I don't know. Marketing frightens me.

Pretty sure costumers will just say "Yo, you got some Q!?" How many breweries start with Q? Unique...you can rhyme it....great marketing to me.

I'd go the opposite direction. Name it Budweiser, should get a C&D letter from AB within a week, make a stink about it and get free publicity you could never pay for, change your name to anything else and advertise that the 'man' forced you to do it.

I am currently in the mash-stage of my latest brew. An all-Cascade rye pale ale.

Pulling a all-nighter?

Man, that sound good!

Do what google did and trademark every combination of letters out to 6. You have it all covered.

Believe it actually has to be used in commerce to qualify as date of first usage. But I'm not a lawyer.

Well still, don't think I have anything to worry about there. Something to think about.

No, I don't believe you do either.

Once everyone figures out how to pronounce it and remembers it is very unique.

It probably is my easiest route. But I'm not 100% sold. But ultimately the odds of someone taking that are so slim anyway that I can sit on it and think of alternatives. Besides, even thinking about it at this point makes me feel like the 16 year old kid drawing "album art" for his "metal band" when he barely knows how to play the f***ing guitar.

Dry Stout.

You guys think we can knock out 400 plus posts tomorrow? I'm calling it a month on the last day of the month, not after 30 days.

Yes, but we'd have to change this thread to "Drunken Ramblings and Mindless MumblingS"...notice the 's'....to really change things up.

DC, make sure you mark this one on your calendar. I'm going to try to take that Friday off work to be there

Thank you. I will be there hope i can get tickets

Always caving to peer pressure. Cheers!

I'm one of those impressionable youths you read about.

Mulling over brewery names as I've been told I need to trademark something ASAP as more and more names are taken every day. Thinking I should just use my home "brewery" name, but it's iffy (local breweries using some of the same words, and a Japanese soft drink company with a "cider" with the American translation trademarked verbatim indicated via USPTO search), and unable to come up with better ideas, plus I could claim some sort of usage via having it on Untappd for so long. But a minimum of $225 to file is a lot to pay for something I'm worried would quickly get contested. Any lawyers or others with at least relevant knowledge in the house?

Always wondered what sort of market forces influenced the buying of bacon bits. Beer pressure.

Gotta buy some bacon bits. That looks good. .

Goose IPA
New Belgium Citradelic

Trying to decide next beer. Maybe bourbon.

 

[iijakii]

Qhrumphf juice.

Might get sued by a rapper or something though, **** do I know.

FTFY

I shouldn't still be awake. Double pour of Witbier. Nightcap.

 

[BrewinHooligan]

I like y'all, but I'm not taking the time to read through the missed 275 posts. The new Casa Del Hooligan is occupied and I'm on beer number 3 after popping some Percocet the wife found unpacking things. Destroyed by back, legs, and feet. The Belgian dubbel is insanely good but I can't drink more than one. The Scottish 80/- on the other hand can be pounded one after the other. Time to brew an IPA though, I need some hops

 

[thatjonguy]

Couldn't decide between bourbon and beer.

Make that triple pour of Witbier. I planned on early AM gym. That's not happening.
