From BizJournals:
612Brew has changed the name of its most popular beer, "Rated R", after receiving a legal challenge from the Motion Picture Association of America.
The Northeast Minneapolis craft brewer got a cease-and-desist letter from the MPAA shortly after it filed to trademark the names of its signature beers a few months ago, 612Brew co-founder Robert Kasak said.
MPAA spokesperson Kate Bedingfield confirmed the film studio organization sent 612Brew such a letter.
