Save Catuma!

If you like to party at Bachstelzen, Kater Holzig or Sisyphos, you might already be familiar with Catuma: a Brazilian “Vine Cocktail” that contains Guarana and other herbs. Just a good alternative to beer and vodka long drinks…

Catuma is distributed by a Berlin company which is struggling with an absurd lawsuit since last year. The wine and champagne manufacturer Louis Roederer has pressed charges against Catuma because they used the word “cristal” in their communication; apparently, the rights to use this term are protected by Louis Roederer. An international luxury brand against a small Berlin company that distributes to small clubs – the whole thing is quite ridiculous, as both brands have almost nothing in common, they are not even competitors. The cristal that Louis Roederer sells costs about 170 Euros, which is not exactly the kind of drink you would order at the Fusion at 5am in the morning….

Now Catuma’s existence is threatened by the lawsuit. To help Catuma out, the Bachstelzen are hosting a support party at Wilde Renate in September. Get more information after the jump.

Before we get to the party, just one more thing: if you would like to tell Louis Roederer what you think about their plan to drive Catuma into ruin, just go to their Facebook-Seite page.

Now, let’s come to the party.

From September 7 until September 9 the Bachstelzen will take over the Renate. The lineup features the usual suspects: David Dorad, Madmotormiquel, Turmspringer, Soukie & Windish etc. pp. The Party starts on Saturday night at Wilde Renate, on Sunday it continues as an open air at Else. In the end, there is an after hour, again at Renate.

The best thing is: even though the party takes place at Renate, you will not have to face the arrogant judging of the bouncer this time. Because this is a “Soli Party” – all money will be donated to Catuma. So you can actually buy the tickets in advance online at a crowdfunding website. And be quick! As everyone knows, a Bachstelzen party will be sold out soon.
