I FOUND THIS ON ANOTHER SITE
This is gonna sound familiar...
Long story short: Rock Art Brewery in Vermont celebrated their 10th anniversary by brewing a beer by the name of Vermonster. Monster Energy drinks caught wind of this and decided to sue the pants off Rock Art, a small microbrewery that definitely couldn't handle a lawsuit brought on by a huge corporation. It's so wrong that Monster, run from the opposite side of the country, would seek out companies like Rock Art simply in the name of profit. Clearly Monster won't be losing any business from the sale of a craft brew made in Vermont, but what they will be doing is robbing our country of something it needs desperately: domestically produced goods. Monster does produce their product domestically but relies on corporations from Canada and Mexico for distribution. Makes you wonder if the winnings from this lawsuit would be marked down as a capital gain for monster come next spring...
