Controversial Brand Name: German Firm Wins Right to Make Beer Called 'Fucking Hell'

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.

Is your life a fucking hell? The next round's on you!

They're going to produce clothing, too. You'll be able to say, in a loud, clear voice, "These burlap jockey shorts I'm wearing are Fucking Hell!" :biggrin:
 
From the end of the article:

It is likely to heighten Fucking's fame, which is something Meindl, the town's mayor, isn't happy about, given the trouble the name has caused it over the years. "Twelve or 13 town signs have been stolen. We've taken to fixing them with concrete, welding and rivets."

The Bavarian towns of Kissing and Petting have the same problem, as does the eastern German town of Pissen. But so far, there are no plans to name a beer after them.

<------- I'm drawing up EU applications for Pissen light beer and for Petting feminine hygiene spray. 😛
