In the animated series The Simpson’s Duff Beer is the beer of choice from Homer Simpson. It is the only drink that Moe Syzlack stocks at his tavern, Moe’s Tavern. “Hey Moe, Gimme a Duff Beer, please.” is a well known phrase from Homer Simpson.

Duff beer is a parody of typical commercial beer and has a close similarity to Budweiser it is advertised everywhere in the series just like in real life. In the series the Duff beers official spokesperson is “Duffman” and Budweiser have used a cartoon spokesperson named “Budman”. Also during the Super Bowl in the series, Duff Beer was advertised as Duff Lite and Duff Dry play in the Duff Bowl, which is almost the same to Budweiser’s Bud Bowl.

The producer of The Simpson’s has stated that the Duff trademark will not be used to brew an actual beer, because it could encourage kids to start drinking. There have been however some individuals that have attempted to make money with the name Duff Beer.

There is also a real brewery in England named Daleside which makes Duff beer, here Duff means Gaelic for dark.
