# Alcoholic Sundown Contraptions Get the Night Started With the Quilmes Cristal Beer Campaign By Meghan Young | Published 2011-07-12 | Marketing Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/quilmes-cristal References: [ibelieveinadv](http://www.ibelieveinadv.com/2011/07/cerveza-quilmes-get-the-night-started/) & [quilmes.au](http://www.quilmes.com.au) Although beer can easily be a daytime drink as much as a nighttime one, the Quilmes Cristal ad campaign is clearly promoting the beverage as the latter. The perfect drink to get your nocturnal groove on with, it also appeals to the younger generation through its cute and clever [print ad campaign](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mcdonalds-night-posters). Conceived by Buenos Aires-based ad agency [Young & Rubicam](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beaver-water), the Quilmes Cristal ad campaign is comprised of three prints that each center around a couple. The man, who happens to be holding a bottle of Quilmes Cristal beer, is also holding the key to starting the night early. Like a grade-school science project, each beer is attached to a presentation board that, when pulled, will switch the daytime scenario to a nighttime one. Creatively imaginative, the Quilmes Cristal ad campaign is certainly well-executed. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.6/10 - Popularity: 65% | Activity: 65% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, South America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Marketing](https://www.trendhunter.com/marketing) > [Print](https://www.trendhunter.com/print) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Nocturnal Beer Marketing:** Opportunity for beer brands to target nighttime consumers by highlighting the appeal of drinking their products after the sun goes down. - **Creative Print Advertising:** Potential for ad agencies to design clever and visually appealing print campaigns that captivate consumers' attention. - **Interactive Beer Packaging:** Chance for breweries to create innovative packaging that transforms the drinking experience and enhances the brand's messaging. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Beer Brewing:** Opportunity for beer brands to leverage nighttime marketing strategies to differentiate themselves in a competitive industry. - **Advertising Agencies:** Potential for ad agencies to capitalize on the trend of creative print advertising to attract and retain clients from various sectors. - **Packaging Design:** Chance for packaging companies to collaborate with breweries and develop interactive designs that engage consumers and contribute to brand storytelling. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Eclipse-Inspired Beer Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lime-light-campaign.md) - [Connected Gamer Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/just-another-night-out.md) - [Musical Beer Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/desperados-beer.md) - [Energy-Saving Beer Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ad-that-saves-energy.md) - [House Party-Themed Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hiders-keepers.md) - [Beer-Pouring Party Billboards](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jubel-billboard.md) - [Sunshine-Themed Beer Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sunbrew-sunshine-underground.md) - [Cheerful Beer Store Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/whatever-the-case-may-be.md) - [World-Class Billboard Ads](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/corona-sun-activated-billboard.md)
