Lion launches new campaign for its brand new ultra-low alcohol beer Hahn Ultra via Integer
Lion is launching a campaign via Integer for its new low alcohol beer, Hahn Ultra, which is set to bring new interest into the low alcohol category in Australia.
The creative focuses on the key product benefit of Hahn Ultra containing just 0.2 standard drinks (per 330ml bottle) with the tagline ‘The 0.2 Advantage’.
Says Ben Slocombe, marketing director for Lion: “To us, the 0.2 Advantage is that consumers no longer need to compromise, either on the time they’re able to connect with their mates over an ice- cold beer, or what they want to achieve tomorrow. There’s no need to say cheers with a lemon squash anymore.”
The launch of Hahn Ultra is Lion’s response to the global popularity in non/low alcohol beers, with the segment increasing by 34%1 in the past five years.
Says Slocombe: “In Australia, consumption of low alcohol beer has remained low compared to our international counterparts and understanding of its benefits have been limited. We hope that with the launch and campaign we will begin to see the dial shift and awareness increase, particularly given how popular mid-strength beers are locally.
“We believe Hahn Ultra is going to bring new interest into the low alcohol category. We are offering more choice to people who are looking to moderate their alcohol consumption, but still want to connect socially and enjoy a great tasting beer.”
At 0.9% ABV, Hahn Ultra is low in alcohol but is crafted to offer the full flavoured beer taste that Aussies love.
The campaign is scheduled to run from March until the end of July and will be supported by digital, social, PR and a sampling campaign.
Says Slocombe: “We believe Hahn Ultra is going to bring new interest into the low alcohol category. We are offering more choice to people who are looking to moderate their alcohol consumption, but still want to connect socially and enjoy a great tasting beer.”

This is going to clean up. Great work guys and love the strategy!
Given Hahn Superdry is dishwater, this must be doggy-bowl standard booze.
Add to that a promiscuous, floundering and disrespectful marketing team, and you have 0.0% advantage of success
I get the strong feeling they ‘believe Hahn Ultra is going to bring new interest into the low alcohol category.’
I personally can’t wait to connect with people who want to moderate their alcohol consumption.
I wasn’t sure about this product but then I saw the smiling social scenes in the photos and realised this beer actually IS for me.
