The challenge
Drinkers are fiercely loyal to their go-to lager, making trial of a new beer hard to win.
The idea
Buying a Hazy Lager at participating venues and bottle shops gave a code for instant-win prizes: one-off items themed on other beers, from a branded hot tub to fridges and fishing kits. Film, outdoor, social and PR supported the eight-week promotion.
