Beer brand kicked out of craft beer festival for resemblance to Pornhub logo
The provocative and inappropriate beer Barely Legal has been pulled from sale at an upcoming craft beer festival after criticism that it was "sexist" and "inappropriate".
Australian beer Barely Legal from the Blackflag brewery with an alcohol content of 18.1% and a logo similar to the well-known porn site PornHub has caused negative reviews on social networks.
The beer was supposed to be featured at the Great Australian Beer Spectacular (GABS), but its marketing campaign was withdrawn after public outcry.
Blackflag Brewing expressed regret at the possible "offensive or discomfort", noting that the marketing concept has been withdrawn and a review of the marketing processes is underway.
The Independent Brewers Association (IBA) has stated that such an advertising campaign violates their Code of Conduct and has opened discussions with relevant parties on the matter.
Any mention of porn giants causes a negative public reaction. This is primarily due to the large number of scandals and litigation.
