Fosters launches lager in aluminum bottles
Until now, Crown Lager has only been available in 375-mL glass bottles. The brewer had considered a move into PET bottles, but preferred the appearance and shelf-life advantages of aluminum bottles.
The unique shape of the bottle and the distinctive, upscale look aim to enhance the premium image of the Crown Lager product. Paul Gloster, consumer solutions manager for Fosters Australia, says that consumer reception to the new quick-chill packaging has been more than enthusiastic. It looks great in peoples hands, and the aluminum bottles keep our Crown Lager cold longer than glass in the hot Australian sun.
