Following the successful launch of its revamped recipe and brand in Japan in 2022, Asahi Super Dry, the top-selling beer brand of the country, is ready to introduce its new identity to the broader Asia-Pacific region. The reinvented beer now promises an enhanced drinking experience that breaks beyond conventional expectations. This marks the first recipe refinement since the beer’s debut in 1987, amplifying the unique, sake-inspired crisp sensation that made the original Super Dry a hit.
The rebranding features delicate design adjustments to the iconic silver packaging of Super Dry. Embodying the spirit of modern Japan where innovation aligns with reinvention, the new look combines two contrasting yet harmonizing silvers, symbolizing the Japanese beauty ideal of complementation and distinction.
A Refreshing Taste Like No Other
Inspired by the Bullet Train, a symbol of enduring Japanese innovation, the New Asahi Super Dry offers a swift burst of flavor that smoothly transitions into a clean finish. The refined dry taste leaves no lingering aftertaste, priming your palate for the next sip and accentuating the flavor of food, making it an ideal partner for any cuisine.
The revised beer recipe incorporates a new hop treatment process that bestows it with a subtle hop aroma, and a unique yeast control technology delivering a fermentation-driven aroma. Each sip of the New Asahi Super Dry brings a wave of these delightful aromas to a delicious climax.
