The original story is here…. but it looks like Burnside Brewing will rename their controversial Kali-Ma beer to “International Incident” after a Hindu group protested the original name.  Details from the Salem news:

“Kali-Ma” beer, whose launch on May 15 was cancelled after Hindus protested and the issue was raised in India’s Parliament, has now been re-released with a new name of “International Incident”.

It was available at Portland Fruit Beer Festival on June 9-10 and got rave reviews.
