Is this real?

Oh, that can't be real. Can it? How do they avoid being sued into oblivion? If it was a Disney character the lawyers would have gotten to them before the design left the printer. :)

As far as I could inquire... Duff Beer appears at Fox's Simpsons - BUT the beer brand is not a Fox trademark.

I can only guess this to be true, as Mexico has tight agreements in the so-called intellectual property sphere with the USA. I don't know how much to believe to Duff's webpage (link on the main post), but it seems to be available in several European countries (Spain, Belgium, Germany), and Mexico and Colombia in America.
