Viewers discuss a continuity issue regarding Henry Weinhard beer, a West Coast brand, appearing in Jerry's New York apartment, with debate over whether it constitutes a genuine production error.
NO>I was disappointed to see a flaw on the set of Seinfeld in a recent episode. NO>The brand of beer they were drinking in Jerry's apartment was Henry NO>Weinhard which is (presumably) only available on the West Coast. NO>I forgive them, though.
Haha... didn't notice that one. Although that's not quite as bad as the long-famous Pacific Bell telephones in Die Hard 2, when he's supposed to be on the east coast - same type of flaw.
In fact, the PacBell "flaw" was not a flaw, but something for which Pac Bell paid big bucks. (I remember the figure being something around $1 million back then, but I could be wrong). When you see a product used by someone in a movie, bet that the company paid for that plug. That may be what happened in the Seinfeld episode, but I don't have any info there....

-- If the only flaw is that Henry Weinhard is "only available on the West Coast", then I don't buy it as a flaw.
The first set of possible exploanations to come to mind:
