This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.

I don't really think this is fundamentally different from how it's always been. Food and drink has always had branding, and I don't see how gay water is truly that much different from any other branding. The only difference I see is that republicans won't stop complaining about it
How would you react if someone prints Jesus Christ, hanging on the cross with bloody hands and feet onto your favourite beer. With a face of pure agony and some letters addressing charity?
Or how would you react if some company prints advertisement of Scientology onto their products.
The only thing that belongs onto a product is something to identify the brand, the expiry date, and what it actually contains.
I'd probably just buy a different beer and get on with my life. So long as they're not using their product to actively promote bigotry in society, there's no reason for me to care.
That sounds quite metal tbh for beer. I would give it a go.
