The Calgary brewery released its first sour beer this month as a celebration of 'Karen', the internet-coined name given to the stereotypical entitled, privileged white woman.

On Friday, Common Crown announced its decision to remove the beer from store shelves and issued the following apology:

We wish to thank those who reached out and brought to our attention the error we have made in our recent release. We realize that our intent of the Karen label is insignificant at this juncture. Unfortunately, The Karen Cherry Sour missed the mark, and we promise to do better. Being tone deaf to racial developments is not an excuse, and we will work harder to stay informed and up to date on escalating situations.

The Karen Cherry Sour has been pulled from shelves and is no longer available for sale. While this is just a small step in understanding our wrong, we are committed to moving forward and doing better.

Lmfao dumbest shit ever.

I wondered, for a second, if they had pulled the beer because of the anti-white nature of the Karen insult, but no it was the usual Shaniquas.

This is getting ridiculous. It’s literally mocking Karens. Not celebrating them. What a great idea gone to waste, because of hypersensitivity in today’s world. I feel bad for the guy who not only had to take a hit on this beer, but had to drum up that bs apology letter too.

Fuck anyone that acts like a Karen I’d still buy it

All that means is she worked hard to get her name on it can white black purple or green doesn’t matter who you are if you work hard anybody can be privileged has nothing to do with your colour

I feel horrible for all the kind respectful women named Karen who have to put up with this crap

Cherry sour beer shouldn’t exist under any name. 🤮🤮🤮

This stuff is getting stupid in a hurry. Seriously, what group is this beer hurting?

Raped product

WOW... why do companies do this they think they are going to lose business over this shit.... like fuck off..

What a bunch of crap. You are bending way to far backwards....privileged black people. Oh wait we can’t call them black, only they can call themselves that.

All whites are not privileged. All Chinese are not good at math. All black people are not lazy. There’re millions of white people living in poverty in America, they are privileged? They lack medical care, education, money, they’re privileged how? Affirmative Action helps them?

White people worked to build this country. Others came here to take advantage of our success. And now they are telling us how to run our lives and our businesses. Stand strong don’t bend!!

Did the Karens sue for libel or something? How is this insensitive or inappropriate? It's mocking and pointing out white female privilege, which is exactly what society's been doing.

Good God!! Don’t bring American politics here. What’s a privileged white woman Someone who worked all her life. Key word worked !!!!

I’m offended by the racist word ‘white’. It’s about time we got that dealt with.

Party poopers !

This beer is not Not recognizing the Karen’s you morons, it is mocking them.

Now thats funny, can't believe people would complain enough to get this pulled. Does anyone have a sense of humour anymore? I'd give it a try just for the meme

How many Karens complained about this?🤔🤔🤔

The term Karen has nothing to do with a white privileged woman. It’s basically a term used for an anal mother hen rule following Caucasian woman. I think the BML and keyboard heroes need to chill a bit. Maybe grab a beer.

Come on this is becoming too much

Lmfao. I will never buy this company’s product. Brain dead woke fucks.

Damn.....had my own beer for a hot minute!

How was this not Babylon bee? Am I seeing things?

THIS IS RIDICULOUS!!

I’ll be glad when these crazy leftists get tuned for in

I don’t see how this is an issue? I would have bought one lol

Oh please 🙄

Calgary is a conservative stronghold. Kudos to that brewery with the conjones of steel to do it there. Lol. Bring Karen beer to Ontario and I’ll buy it. 🤣

Wayfairchildtrafficking do some real reporting

Things are just ridiculous anymore. Seems to me its racist to get rid of the can just because a white women is on it.

Oh my god! Really? What the fk is going on? Ok, put a Black man’s face pic in it them. It doesn’t make the beer different. Beer drinkers go for the taste not the picture on label

seriously?

🙄 Get woke, go broke! 😂

As a society we are doomed.

I suddenly want to drink beer!! This is awesome!!

Dumb

Calgary, you are making a very BIG mistake pulling that beer

Grow up!

Karen being Karen 🙄🤦🏼‍♂️🤷🏼‍♂️

Yes I thought it was funny come on ppl it’s funny. Take a chill pill man ppl are so uptight these days relax have a beer or a glass of wine and chill.

🤣🤣👍🏻

🙄😡

Ffs

Just glad Vachon is still selling Flakies! Good tasting and a true reflection of our society !

🤣🤣🤣🤣

So they were shamed for promoting white supremacy? Or shamed for being racist to white women? I’m confused here

In other news...

It is just funny! Loosen up people.

“Karen” is a racial slur

LMAO

I guess Caucasians (might include me) have to follow the new cancel culture rules. So, here we go: Brewery Bigots! This micro-brewery micro aggression will not stand... especially after drinking a half-sack of those mothers! Yum. I digress... Racists! Twitter cancel!

Did Karen complain!

Come on... that’s just funny....

Who the fuck is Karen?

Too bad

Too bad I’d totally purchase that product. Karen’s are a huge wart on our society and should be exposed as they use humiliation as a tactic to get their way. Pond scum.

Which white woman complained?

I remember a time when people weren’t offended by every little thing

lol if ppl read the article it was the yyc chapter of BLM that complained it was tone deaf

Huh? You guys are 🗑

It is beer already, lighten up people!

crissles whoissugar

I probably should change my name to Karen

Call the next one “Cannuks be fuk’d... It’s Trudeau”

Next week when they release their “new” cherry sour we’ll know what we’re really drinking😉😉 KarensGonnaKareing

Soon enough businesses are going to realize how much they lose by jumping on every bandwagon they think will sway consumers. For every one you attract you drive others away because the average person couldn't give a damn about what the latest narrative or trend is

Can I speak to your manager? This uproar is getting way too extreme. I think I'll contact CBS and complain about The Jeffersons that they ran from 1975-1985!

Karen you are one Privileged White Girl , you should be drinking wine not beer !!!!! MY GOD WHAT IS THIS WORLD COMING TO !!!

How racist can you get

Was the complaint filed by.... Karen? 🤣

I’m a little confused how you fight racism with stereotypes, I mean if a Karen is an entitled white woman, what’s a Jamal? Or a Abdul? Or a Wong? Every race has dicks. This seems counterproductive, and what about all the good people named Karen getting embarrassed by their name?
