Fictional trademark is now a reality?

It looks like the framework set up in a note written by our very own former Editor-in-Chief, Ben Arrow, could come into play in the near future.  A British brewing company has begun manufacturing and distributing Duff Beer, a staple on the famous television show The Simpsons, in the UK and Europe.  Although it seems that Duff has not reached U.S. shelves, Matt Groening has said that he would not license the Duff Trademark to any brewing companies.
