You can’t buy happiness, but you can buy beer and that’s pretty much the same thing… right? Well, what would you do if instead of going to the store to buy beer, you could instantly make beer at home, or anywhere, with just two easy steps. Sounds impossible! Kingfisher believes that a drink like beer deserves to be had anytime, anywhere!
Kingfisher Announces Instant Beer Packet
On March 30th, 2019, United Breweries, India’s biggest beer producer that also makes the famous Kingfisher brand, announced their latest product — Kingfisher Instant Beer. The product is sold in a box which contains two sachets. One is the carbonation powder to give your instant beer the refreshing fizz. The second is the ‘beer powder’, which gives the instant beer the actual Kingfisher beer flavour you know and love.

Instant beer? I’m not convinced…
How does instant beer work?
The world’s first instant beer is made by first mixing the carbonation powder into cold water. This creates, you guessed it, carbonated water. After your fizzy H2O is all mixed up, it’s time to add the beer powder. The beer powder is made by a freeze-drying process which separates the water from the dry matter of beer. So, by putting the two back together, you theoretically get the same beer back. It only takes two, simple steps to produce a refreshing pitcher of beer, with the “same great taste” as regular Kingfisher beers!
What Kingfisher has to say about their latest instant beer product:
While the convenience of having a beer instantly could be it’s selling point alone, the brewers from United Breweries believe that the main advantage of instant beer is the incredibly easy transport and storage of the product.
“A drink as free as beer doesn’t deserve to be bottled up. As the leading beer brand of the country it is our responsibility to keep our consumers satisfied with breakthrough innovations: A beer that is free of all packaging, that is easy to store, carry or drink anytime, anywhere.” – United Breweries
