Awesome. Suck on it, Putin.

Read about it this morning. So awesome. Love these guys.

This is the same Russia that considers beer a soft drink right?

Thought they could have been more original, perhaps something like "Pillow Bitter"...

Cheers

I don't know. I read that and think they're exploiting an issue with huge emotional power for the sake of marketing Brewdog. It makes me like them less. They're about as punk as corporate lawyers.

 

[Rambo]

Yeah, I was thinking that also. They are donating the profits to improving the cause... Though do get a whole lot of free advertising in the process.

It seems to me that they are in the headlines every month or so for something that doesnt actually mention or involve the quality of their beer?
A good marketing campaign maybe?

Edit: They shit me.
