"F.U. Sandy" Beer to Benefit Sandy Victims

Flying Fish to give 100% proceeds to NJ Sandy victims

 

Huffington Post reports that Flying Fish Brewery Company is ready to give Hurricane Sandy a big F.U. with "F. U. Sandy," a hybrid wheat-pale ale inspired by the storm. (The F.U. stands for "Forever Unloved.")

One hundred percent of the proceeds from the beer will go to New Jersey Sandy victims, according to the Huffington Post story.

I love this companies intent and yet sadly I expect we will not see any of it.

Roughly 100 kegs of the beer will be brewed and are estimated to bring in $50,000 for a Sandy charity, which will be nominated and chosen by Flying Fish fans on Facebook and Twitter.

Wow, $500 per keg profit. That's a nice margin.

Forever unloved - a real class act.

This is a marketing campaign by a semi local company that is trying to speak with a Jersey voice. Listen to Christie...he has a real Jersey voice. Rethink your campaign...you are on the right track...make it more charity and less free advertising and you will win in the end.
