Peroni Libera 0.0%, the Super Premium alcohol-free beer brand, today announces a long-term, multi-year partnership with the Aston Martin Cognizant Formula One™️ Team.
The new partnership celebrates the global launch of Peroni Libera 0.0% as a stylish and aspirational alcohol-free beer choice and comes as the Aston Martin Cognizant Formula One™️ team prepares to make its highly anticipated return to Formula One™️ after more than 60 years.
Peroni Libera 0.0% will take centre stage of the partnership, bringing the alcohol-free product to a passionate global audience. Peroni Libera 0.0% will be served at prestigious events across the global Formula One™️ calendar including in the Aston Martin Cognizant Formula One™️ Team motorhome at most Grands Prix and across a number of stylish city centre activations aimed at engaging new and current consumers.
The partnership plays a key role in the ambitions of the Peroni brand’s parent company, Asahi Europe & International, to have 20% share of their portfolio dedicated to non-alcoholic products by 2030. Peroni Libera 0.0% is crafted with Italian passion and flair, to deliver a crisp and refreshing beer with 0.0% alcohol content. Its superior taste is delivered through a unique recipe with signature Italian Nostrano dell’Isola Maize, produced and bottled in Italy.
The Peroni Libera 0.0% logo will take pride of place on the Aston Martin Cognizant Formula One™️ Team’s 2021 challenger car livery and team kits during the season, which is set to be revealed to the world on Wednesday 3 March 2021. The partnership is in line with Asahi Europe & International’s responsible drinking ambitions and is perfectly positioned to support the increased consumer demand for non-alcoholic beverages. Peroni Libera 0.0% invites consumers to feel free to live every moment. Safely, and in style. Inspiring them to drink less, better by providing an aspirational choice which suits their lifestyle.
This is a landmark moment for Peroni Libera 0.0% and an opportunity to take our alcohol-free beer brand to consumers through the platform of Formula One™️.
The brand will also partner with Aston Martin Cognizant Formula One™️ Team to create a content campaign during the season aimed at opening the doors on both the team and the sport, engaging Formula One™️ fans and lifestyle audiences, and bringing them closer than ever before to the most elevated moments in Formula One.
The first film, released today, features Aston Martin Cognizant Formula One™️ Team drivers Sebastian Vettel and Lance Stroll revealing their inner passion and flair and what inspires the two drivers to excel at the pinnacle of motorsport.
Asahi Europe & International -owned Italian brand Peroni Nastro Azzurro launched its first non-alcoholic beer Peroni Libera 0.0% in 2019. Triple hopped and made with Nostrano Peroni Maize to produce its distinctive rich fruity aroma, Peroni Libera 0.0% offers distinct notes of citrus and powerful hoppy bitterness, resulting in a crisp and refreshing finish. Peroni Libera 0.0% offers the same fresh taste experience as Peroni Nastro Azzurro and has been crafted with authentic Italian skill, passion, and flair.
