ANARCHY RULES AT BREW STAR BREWERY

A fast-growing North East craft brewer has swiftly changed its name rather
than face a storm with another brewer.

A legal row started fermenting between new Northumberland brewery Brew Star
and the established, larger Brewsters Brewing Company.

The larger Grantham-based brewer was not happy with the similar sounding name
of Brew Star and felt it was a challenge to its intellectual property rights
and might cause confusion among drinkers, threatening businessen on that Brewsters objected to Brew Star name.

I found this interesting, as I've tasted both these brewerie's beers and in my opinion, they're equally as good as one another. I think Brewsters over reacted a bit, especially as they're so far away from one another geographically. I wouldn't get mixed up in the pub either, they're not that similar.

I do prefer the new name, Anarchy, - they're definitely a brewery to watch, the beers are excellent.
