Scofflaw Brewing Co. outraged at misrepresentation by an agency in the UK
Georgia brand head butts the false social media post released without knowledge or consent on their behalf.
ATLANTA, Sept. 28, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Scofflaw Brewing Co. is appalled by the inaccurate posts released yesterday morning by a UK agency that Scofflaw hired to promote its UK tour. Those posts were released without Scofflaw's knowledge or approval.
The agency issued a follow-up release asking the thousands of journalists to whom they sent the original, to disregard the information, saying: "You may have received an email with incorrect information regarding Scofflaw Brewery entering the UK market, encouraging Trump supporters to join them for a beer. PLEASE NOTE, THIS WAS INCORRECT INFORMATION AND IS NOT A MESSAGE FROM THE BRAND. Please accept my huge apologies for the confusion and do not run the piece."
Scofflaw owner Matt Shirah directed his commentary accordingly, "This post is absolute nonsense. While we definitely have country roots, no one at Scofflaw Brewing or those associated with our brand, is now or has ever been, rooted in hate. We do not tolerate hate — that's just idiotic."
"We welcome anyone who enjoys good beer. Scofflaw's ascension in the States and our presence here in the UK is propagated in hard work and humble beginnings. This misinformation shared over social media today is simply wrong … we could care less about your political viewpoint, only that you like our beer."
SCOFFLAW BREWING ...THERE'S A LITTLE DISSENT IN EVERYTHING WE DO.
