BECAUSE WANTING AND HAVING YOUR BEER ARE NOT THE SAME THINGSerial 86206888 · Principal Register
Dead · Cancelled
Owner: RBE INVESTMENTS, LLC
Class 035 - Advertising & Business
Class 042 - Scientific & Technology Services
Filed Feb 27, 2014
Registered Nov 25, 2014
The record shows that the mark “BECAUSE WANTING AND HAVING YOUR BEER ARE NOT THE SAME THING” was registered on the Principal Register on November 25 2014 but was cancelled under Section 8 on July 2 2021 because the owner, RBE INVESTMENTS, LLC, failed to file a declaration of continued use. The cancelled registration covered services in class 035 (advertising and business services related to inventory, order, and supply‑chain management in the beverages industry) and class 042 (software‑as‑a‑service and hardware facilitating the same inventory and order functions). A similar name would raise the closest concern in those two service areas, especially where the name is used to market or provide software or business services for beverage inventory and supply chains. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the wording, and no enforcement actions such as oppositions or cancellations are shown. The last meaningful event was the cancellation in 2021. If you plan to use a similar name in the same or related services, this history suggests a meaningful risk of confusion with the cancelled mark.

The way I'd use it, honestly, is as the thing you attach when a bank, a marketplace, or a co-founder asks "are we clear on the name". It answers in one page.
