I dont know if the sign in
this actually looks like this, or if that website censored it.
Hell means light in German. And, light with some place name or other is a common way to name beer in Germany. There was a courtcase though, to try to prevent 'Fucking Hell' from getting on the off licence shelves. Even with English being now the official language of Europe, 'Fucking Hell' is still on the shelves.
The EU's trademarks authority has permitted a German firm to brew beer and produce clothing under the name "Fucking Hell". It may be an expletive in English, but in German it could refer to a light ale -- Hell -- from the Austrian town of Fucking.
Quote from
German Firm Wins Right to Make Beer Called 'Fucking Hell'
Spokesman Siegfried Hoeppl, said: "Everyone here knows what it means in English, but for us Fucking is Fucking - and it's going to stay Fucking - even though the signs keep getting stolen."
Reply to this Ha ha, that 2nd quote is hilarious! Should have ended; "even though the fucking signs keep getting stolen."!
Reply to this The second comment there was hilarious too. They took advantage of the situation and sold items/souvenirs. They have a fucking merchandise. LOL.
Reply to this Some argue that calling the beer 'Fucking Hell' should not be allowed, because there is no Fucking Brewery. I mean, there isnt a brewery in Fucking.

And with a name like that How could the town NOT take advantage of it!
Reply to this Are you sure there is no Fucking Brewery? Fucking is beautiful, and has its place, as I am sure no one is disputing. But my question stands, does anyone know for sure that there is no Fucking Brewery their?
Next time I am in the neighborhood of Fucking, I am going to keep my eyes open the entire time, beer is what I'll be looking for, and if I ever make it to that Fucking town mentioned I'll be sure to look around there too.

Reply to this Dunno why the went for the trademark, "Fucking Hell", when "Fucking Beer" would have been much better. I mean, "Honey, get me another fucking beer" sounds better than, "Fucking hell honey, please."
Reply to this I haven't been there yet, but years ago I passed through a village in Austria called "Petting". Shame I didn't take a picture at the time...
Reply to this This thread had me in (F**king) hysterics!
I can see a new thread coming along here. Funny pub/beer names of the world.
I once lived in Portsmouth, UK near the Fawcett Inn. Best of all they served Fawcett Inn Cider. Oh dear! 😊
Reply to this Apparently, a woman from Effin, Ireland is not allowed to put that she is from Effin on her FaceBook account, because Effin is sometimes used as slang for f*cking.
Here is the f*cking logo. Somebody posted it on my boyfriends FaceBook account last night. This logo along with the F*cking sign are a regular fascination and appear often on the internet. Makes me wonder why no TravelBloggers have photos of the F*cking sign. Has anyone here stolen the sign itself? Apparently, that happens a lot too. The towns folks in F*cking have put a lot of effort into making the sign thief proof, so stealing it is a challange these days.
Reply to this This is an "UNF***" so hope it qualifies on this thread
