We don’t have Monster Energy Drink where I live but even so I can clearly see the Monster Energy Drink side effects by reading a recent blog post from a fellow internet marketer Allyn Hane on his post about Monster Energy Drink Bankruptcy. His website is currently under so much traffc that you can’t get to his post unless you are reading this way after it is written. I never really liked energy drinks, and even if they have caffeine, I choose to drink coffee or take some caffeine pills for my tiredness.
My woman does like energy drinks but the ones she drinks don’t seem to have the side effects that Monster Energy Drink clearly has. The most notable one is that if you buy, drink or are in any way involved with Hansen Natural Corp. (the company behind this piss tasting diesel) you are going to get f*cked up in the head. You hear me right! You are going to get all messed up and start thinking that for some reason people who have absolutely nothing to do with you, or anything that you have anything to do with are trying to plagiarize YOU. I am of course referring to the fact that Hansen Natural Corp is thinking about going to expand to the beer industry as well, and they maybe came up with a nice name for their product (Beermonster?).
Unfortunately their lawyers noticed that Rock Art Brewery is already producing a high quality product called Vermonster that is too close to their name idea – and heck since they are not already in the beer business they had to make it about their energy drink, since it is the closest match they have. They are threatening Rock Art Brewery with an E-MAIL (is this serious?) that they will take them to court and basically take their business down if they don’t give the name away. This is a home based company which is currently employing a handful of people trying to make a living out of a product they have given their life to. Can they be run over by a million dollar company like this even if it is based on ridiculous claim that their beer can be confused with their energy booster. They are not even competing about the same customers, and no-one who is even near sane, will get confused between an energy drink and a beer that have a few letters common. They should read a few energy drink reviews and think twice about getting the mixed up.
F*ck me and call me Daisy but is there something seriously wrong with the legal system in the States? Do what you can to spread the word about this bullshit company and make sure that the Monster Energy Drink side effects get known to the public!
