`
`RE: Serial Number 76/261324
`
`Applicant is requesting reconsideration of a final refusal dated May 27, 2003.
`
`After careful consideration of the law and facts of the case, the examining attorney must deny the
`request for reconsideration and adhere to the final action as written since no new facts or reasons
`have been presented that are significant and compelling with regard to the point at issue.
`
`Accordingly, applicant’s request for reconsideration is denied. 37 C.F.R. Section 2.64(b); TMEP
`Section 715.04. The application file will be returned to the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board for
`resumption of the appeal.
`
`The requirement for a definite identification of goods and the refiisal under Section 2(d) are both
`MAINTAINED. The applicant must specify the field of use for the hops extracts.
`
`Despite applicant’s assertion that “[a]pplicant’s customers and registrant’s customers will under no
`circumstances enter the same channels of trade” and “applicant’s and registrant’s products are not
`even available in the same locations,” it
`is well settled that the issue of likelihood of confusion
`between marks must be determined on the basis of the goods or services as they are identified in
`the application and the registration. Canadiaii Imperial Bank of Commerce v. Wells Fargo Bank,
`811 F.2d 1490,
`l USPQ2d I813 (Fed. Cir. l987); Pcmfa Payne Products Co. v. Johnson Pnrblishing
`Co, Inc, 473 F.2d 901, 177 USPQ 76 (CCPA 1973). Since the identification of the registrant's
`and applicant’s goods is very broad and does not limit the channels of trade, it is presumed that the
`registration and the application encompasses all goods of the type described and that they move in
`all normal channels of trade and that they are available to all potential customers.
`In re E/baum,
`
`

`
`4
`
`'3
`
`211 USPQ 639, 640 (TTAB 1981). Please see the attached X-Search evidence which illustrates
`that the same marks are used to identify both beer and hops or hops extracts.
`
`the fact that purchasers are
`its customers are sophisticated,
`Despite applicant’s assertion that
`sophisticated or knowledgeable in a particular field does not necessarily mean that
`they are
`sophisticated or knowledgeable in the field of trademarks or immune from source confusion. See
`In re Decombe, 9 USPQ2d 1812 (TTAB 1988); In re Pellerin Milnor Corp, 221 USPQ 558
`(TTAB 1983).
`
`Accordingly, the refusal in MAINTAINED.
