Brewer, Monster-maker settle 'Vermonster' dispute

The Associated Press

MORRISVILLE, Vt. - A small Vermont brewery can keep making and selling its Vermonster beer.

Last month Corona, Calif.-based Hansen Beverage Co. told Rock Art Brewery to stop producing the beer because consumers could confuse it with Hansen's popular energy drink, Monster.

Lawyers for the two companies negotiated a deal: Rock Art can keep its Vermonster product as long it stays out of the energy-drink business.
