According to extensive market research, the damages suffered by The Bulldog for not being allowed to sell our energy drink during many years amounted to more than 300 million euros in a best case scenario. Financial experts of Sman Business Value in Amsterdam concluded in its report that the average damages for The Bulldog amounted to at least 49 million euros. We provided Red Bull with a copy of the Sman report in July 2022, but received no response on the content of the claim. This was in line with Red Bull’s constant attitude towards us, ignoring the claim of damages which was presented already several times in the years before. With this recent court ruling we’re one step closer to receiving compensation for the revenues we had to miss out on for so long. It means that we are entering the final chapter, after nearly 20 years of legal battles with Red Bull. What’s this all about? The story of a bullfight in court

But of course there’s much more to do than just staying in your room. You’re welcome to join us at our impressive lounge bar, where you can chill, drink and smoke (no tobacco) in the relaxed and friendly living room atmosphere which The Bulldog is known and loved for. And if you could do with some fresh air, why not climb up to our rooftop terrace? If you remember the beginning of this article, you’ll know that the bullfight didn’t end there. Because we were unjustly prevented from selling our energy drink for so long by Red Bull, we deserved compensation for the potential revenue The Bulldog missed out on. Gongs were presented for a total of 14 categories at the third annual British Kebab Awards, following a competitive nomination process. In the human body, fat-soluble and water-soluble nutrients are absorbed and utilized in fundamentally different ways. Water-soluble nutrients are absorbed directly into the bloodstream from the small intestine, while fat-based compounds are either pulled out of the digestive tract via stool or are absorbed through the lymphatic system before being tagged for removal by the liver. More often than not, when you consume cannabis-infused foods and beverages, the majority of the active components are excreted before they even enter the body.The first kebab shop opened in North London in 1966 and there are now over 20,000 kebab outlets in the UK selling an estimated 1.3m kebabs every day. CBD, however, is not naturally water-soluble. The cannabinoid is a fat-derived compound, and, as the common saying suggests, oil and water don’t mix. The molecule itself is a natural component of plant resin, which is an essential oil produced by the cannabis plant. This resin dissolves in fat like butter and cooking oil, not water.

The 26 th of October was a special day for The Bulldog: we were able to celebrate another legal victory against Red Bull. Earlier we’d taken the Austrian energy drink giant to trial, demanding damages for not being able to put our own energy drink on the market.

The calming benefits of CBD may sound enticing, but why drink it? CBD can be absorbed under the tongue, swallowed in capsules, applied to the skin, inhaled via vaporization, and even infused into solid foods. Yet, while all of these options are valuable to consumers, some products are highly effective while others are not. Different CBD products work differently in the human body. Although there are many ways to consume the cannabinoid, some products are more beneficial than others. Aside from these important reasons, it was Red Bull itself that nudged the judges towards their final decision. The Supreme Court looked into the case of Bullit, which is a major energy drink manufacturer and a daughter company of Red Bull. You’ve probably guessed it. Having a daughter company with “bull” in its name that sells a similar product, while you’re accusing a company of trademark violations for that very reason, appeared not to look well in the eyes of the Supreme Court, which ruled that the court of appeals in Amsterdam had wrongly ignored our arguments.

The Amsterdam court however, in its judgement of October 26 th 2022, didn’t see it that way and denied Red Bull’s claim to lift the attachments. According to the judge, the seizure by The Bulldog was justified, even for such a large sum. As a result of this decision the seizure remained in place and the only way for Red Bull to force the lifting of the seizure would be to provide The Bulldog with a bank guarantee for the estimated amount of damages of 49 million euros.

This loss occurs due to the way in which CBD is metabolized by the human body. Three years after winning our first round in court, The Bulldog suffered a major blow in 2010 when the court of appeals in Amsterdam annulled the decision of the district court and ruled in favour of Red Bull’s claim that The Bulldog Energy Drinks were infringing the intellectual property rights of Red Bull. Of course we didn’t agree and we brought the case before the Supreme Court of the Netherlands. The British Kebab Awards took place on 7th January, with restaurants and suppliers across the UK celebrating as they were honoured for their contribution to the industry.

In contrast to water-soluble CBD preparations, some CBD drinks are infused with simple hemp resin extractions. These drinks are infused with either CBD isolate or CBD oil that has been extracted using carbon dioxide as a solvent. Unfortunately, while these drinks may produce some effect, these types of infusions tend to have poor bioavailability.
