In celebration of the the 2014 FIFA World Cup that's going on right now in Brasil, Tsingtao Beer created a limited edition Brazil bottle inspired by soccer season.
The bottles feature bright, splashy illustrations that are full of color and life, just like this year's host country to the games. The design has a slightly circular shape to it and when three of the bottles are placed side by side, the full picture comes into view, creating a soccer ball shape across the trio of bottles.
Although this branding may seem odd coming from a Chinese beer brand, the men's Chinese soccer team doesn't have a very good FIFA ranking and there's always another team to cheer for. The beautiful bottles were designed for Tsingtao Beer by Dragon Rouge and they were launched in May, just ahead of the start of the 2014 Brazil World Cup.
