From Bell's statement it sounds like they're fine with INNOVATION (D'oh on my earlier kerfuffle) keeping the name, they just want to be able to keep their slogan.

Gotta be a missing angle in this story.

What gets me is that Bell's is claiming Ingenuity has refused to negotiate on this at all, but Ingenuity is complaining about how expensive the legal proceedings are. Maybe Ingenuity is holding out hope that if the trademark is granted they'll make a fortune on licensing to Bell's. Or maybe Ingenuity is getting really, really bad legal advice from a lawyer padding his own pockets. I can see Bell's stake in the game here. I can't see Ingenuity's.

This makes about ten million times more sense. Bell's is worried that if the trademark is granted, they'll lose a slogan they've used for decades.

I think 90 minute is too hoppy to pair with food. The other two are great suggestions. Sam Adams Rebel IPA ans New Belgium Ranger IPA also go great with pizza and are easy to find.

Giordano's introduced a thin crust a year or two ago and it is on point.

I'll check that out when I go home for the Battle at Bristol. Thanks for the tip.

I've yet to try Lou Malnati's myself, but I hear really, really good things about it. Like on par with Giordano's good.

I have a hard time imagining you sauntering.

I really don't care for chardogs. Way too much non-hotdog stuff in there. As far as Chicago food staples, Italian beef >> Chicago style hotdogs.

I've only had Gino's North once. For me, they put way too much cheese on their pies. Don't get me wrong, I'm not like french, eating breadsticks and calling it pizza. But when it comes to low moisture part skim mozz, it's just there to make the toppings shine.

True for more than just pizza.

They say the sauce is a blend of dragon scales and Satan's piss.
