Bear republic is behaving very badly. Red Racer are a small BC brewer, and have a great brand that in no way could be confused with Bear Republic’s IPA. I stock both brands in the 2 stores where I work and no one has ever confused the two. I would consider delisting Bear Republic (It’s not just my decision) for their outragous law suit. Craft brewers should be supporting each other not behaving like bullies

Typical, attack the company that threatens you with their success.

Insane. It’s bad enough when big macro breweries try this shit to bully smaller breweries. So what if a few people got confused? What next? Bear Republic sues everyone that uses a bear on their label, just in case?
