Photos: Beyonce gets ‘Bïeryonce’ beer shut down
Brooklyn’s Lineup Brewing has received a cease and desist letter over their Beyoncé-inspired pilsner called Bïeryoncé.
Owner Katarina Martinez said she was inspired to brew it after she missed one of Beyoncé’s concerts despite having tickets. “As a Hispanic, female run business, I am very inspired by her so I thought I’d pay homage,” Martinez told Pitchfork. “We’re disappointed she didn’t take it as a compliment, but oh well. It was fun while it lasted!” The one-time batch is available in New York while supplies last.
