Cobra Beer has announced the launch of an all-new can design that pays homage to a wide range of international Asian cuisines. In particular, each 330ml can features visual motifs meant to represent specific Asian cultures and cuisines ranging from Thai to Japanese to Chinese.
The new design leans into Cobra's Beer's already existing ties to Asian cuisine. According to the company, the cans will be sold exclusively in a four-pack format.
“Cobra is already recognised as the perfect partner to Asian food and the new cans will make an ideal accompaniment to social occasions and mealtimes at home. The artistic design will undoubtedly stand out on the shelf and help retailers create excitement in their food and drink displays, and lend themselves perfectly to pairings and meal deals," said Kevin Fawell, off-trade sales director at Molson Coors Beverage Company.
