Flying Dog / Anheuser-Busch Lawsuit Update - AB Responds

From Today.com:

The beers in question are Wild Blue, Rascal’s Wild Red and Shadow’s Wild Black, three fruit-infused lagers that have canine mascots and are adorned with scribbly artwork reminiscent of Steadman’s style, and for some, the Flying Dog brand.

A-B InBev provided a statement about the issue to TODAY.com, which read in part, “To suggest that there is any consumer confusion between Wild Blue Blueberry Lager and Flying Dog is a very great stretch of the imagination…comparing the whimsical blueberry-kicking dog on the Wild Blue label to any of the gothic canines found on Flying Dog is like comparing da Vinci’s Mona Lisa to a Picasso portrait — they may portray a similar subject but stylistically, there’s no confusing the difference. “
