The Independant (doubt it) Complaints Panel has upheld the Portman Group's claims about Brewdog's Speedball ale.

They should rename it to Cunt Smasher just to piss them off more.

for fuck sake. what a bunch of utter utter cunts.

"The blurring of alcohol and illicit drugs fosters unhealthy attitudes to drinking and trivialises drug misuse.

"BrewDog is profiteering from the scourge of illegal drugs, mocking the misery caused by misuse.

"The company is seriously misguided in its claim to be educating and preventing people from misusing drugs. We are taking urgent action to protect the public from exposure to such negligent marketing."

is this guy for real? what a load of scaremongering nonsense. it's pure deflection to draw attention away from the portman group members who are far more irresponsible in their marketing than brewdog.

perhaps brewdog were big retro computer game fans and named the drink after the classic speedball franchise. did they think of that eh? fucking cuntfucks.

Quite right. Well said.

They are on RIGHT now.

EDIT: In the end they never showed that much, but it has put me in the mood for a bottle of Trashy Blonde (wonderful stuff!). Unfortunately i'm still on my 'no alcohol till March 28th' detox, which i've been keeping to very well so far this year.
