Klingon Beer - squeezing a franchise too far, or just good marketing?

I'm surprised it hasn't been done before, after all you can get Simpsons Duff beer. But CBS, StarTrek franchise owners have just announced their first Official Star Trek Beer "Warhog"

There are plenty of Trekies out there (will confess to being a StarTrek fan) but is anyone really going to be buying Klingon Beer? Or is it just clever PR/Marketing ?

It feels like a bit of a gimmick to me, I'm a bit of a fan and would probably buy one but mainly just to have one, I wouldn't expect the product itself to be great, people tend to have their favourite beer etc and I wouldn't expect this to last so wouldn't be particularly bothered about getting a taste for it.

Is this any different to have a stall selling butter beer midway through the Harry Potter tour?

Nothing wrong with a bit of Potter.
