Duff Beer (The Simpsons)
Duff Beer is a fictional brand of
beer in the
animated series The Simpsons. It is
Homer Simpson's beer of choice. It is a parody of stereotypical commercial beer: moderately priced, average-quality, and advertised everywhere. The beer's official spokesperson is
Duffman.The show's creators appear to have designed the Duff Beer label for the making of the May
1990 episode "
Some Enchanted Evening". The notes "MAKE UP BEER LABEL DUFF BEER?" can be found on p.16 of the first draft of the episode's script.The chief competitor of Duff Beer is Fudd Beer. Homer became aware of Fudd Beer while patronizing a "
redneck bar" in nearby Spittle County (in the episode "
Colonel Homer"). It was later revealed to be considered very popular in
Springfield's rival town of
Shelbyville.
Moe said he thought it had been banned "after all those hillbillies went blind", suggesting that at least one faulty batch of Fudd was laced with
methanol.
