Oasis Brewing (Austin) Kicks New Belgium in the Nuts

Oasis started brewing a great Pale Ale called Slowride. New Belgium started brewing a typically mediocre pale ale called Slowride a few months later. But New Belgium with their deep pockets and their bully lawyers sued Oasis for exclusive use of the name and claimed since Oasis submitted their beer to the GABF in Denver then they fell under the laws if Colorado.. Judge dismissed the lawsuit.

I worked an event at OBC a few weeks ago and hooooolllyyyy crap is that place awesome. Amazing view, good beer, great set-up and the staff is really nice. I can't wait to go spend a Sunday there drinking instead of working.

They were first. If that's all there is to it, good for them.

Good. New Belgium can kick rocks with their anti oil and gas political agendas.

I'm sure the truth is somewhere in the middle, but it appears New Belgium went through the proper channels to name their beer well in advance of brewing it.

I just love when a beer thread goes Poli Board!
No way this one could have gone otherwise, I suppose.
