We probably have the same in the UK but it doesn't sound as impressive being assaulted by a two litre plastic bottle of White Lightning

It's only fair.

One of DB’s subsidiaries, Monteith’s, specialises in producing beers that capitalise on European styles and traditions. It brews a bock, a strong German-style lager. In recent years it has added an Austrian and German style called radler as well as saison, based on a famous Belgian beer style.
Nothing wrong there, you might think: imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. But DB and Monteith’s have slapped trademarks on Radler and Saison. This means that a smaller Kiwi brewery can no longer call its beer “radler” while Belgian brewers of saison can’t export their brands to New Zealand.

Pizza gets EU trademark status
WTF! BBC: Naples pizza makers celebrate EU trademark status
Now, in general HAB is in favour of these protected name things like champagne and the variates of cheeses. But pizza!
In that case, we need to protect the name Balti as only being made in Bradford (or wherever its was) and it has to be served in a bucket. It's only fair.Tags: None
