Worse...Brewpub Names...Ever

[mrphillips]

From time to time, all of us have considered opening our own brewpub/microbrewer (and many have actually taken the plunge). In considering this, there are always a list of potential company names that just don't make the final cut, and many that cross your mind and make you thing "Good God, what's wrong with me?" This, my friends, is where I want to hear your best of the worst!

1) Dirty Enema Brewing Co.

2) MOD EDIT - Is also a poor name for a brewery

3) Mike's Fish Hatchery, brewery and Tire Care Center

There's a Liquor store north of me, with a name of Bunghole Liquors. Pretty funny. It'a amazing that got past the city.

The Belching Beaver around here has all kinds of innuendo going on in their taproom.

Wow, I can buy both beer and Ice Cold there!

Saw a sign once for a bar called Jerry's place. It also said cold beer and cool people... Not on the marquee haha.

Really, they missed "poker in the front, liquor in the rear" ? That's kind of the standard go-to.

Belching beaver, wet n reckless are probably the worst brewery names in San Diego but Hillcrest Brewing Co has the most obnoxious beer names.

Yup, among those three, SD kind of runs it for un-classy beer/brewery names, sad to say.

 

[nikkormat]

i think my biggest pet peeve around here isn't the unclassy names, but the ones that make a brewery sound like a side project. Rough Draft for one. like "oh, this isn't your final effort? you have a 'final draft' brewery you're getting up and running after this one?"

You know, I don't like RD's beers for the most part, or his marketing strategy, but I dig his dedication to the craft. RD, in description and intent, holds its candle, craftwise. He's way into talking to the customers and finding out what the community wants. I totally respect that. Rough Draft is not a side project. He might not be a pro brewer, but he's into making well made beer, and I dig that.

At an SD beer fest a few months back Hillcrest Brewing wouldn't let my friend get a beer without asking for it by name.

"Can I try the Irish Red?"

"SAY THE NAME"

"Hmmmm can I get the red please?"

"Ask for it by name"

"Fine can I get a Crotch Rocket"

Just a tad off topic, but I consider this one of the BEST names for a business. It's in Dearborn MI just south of the big Ford Motor Company complex.

STD brewery: the flavor that will always stick with you

There's a bar in northern WI called Whiskey Richard's, my main complaint is if your going to go with an un-classy name commit to it and call it Whiskey Dick's already.

I live in Sac City, IA.

The liquor store on the edge of town is the Sac Liquor Store.
