LFG, fam! Connor's Stout Porter, the iconic stout with the half Union Jack, is back in the spotlight with a bold attitude and point-of-view. From Taste the Good Times to Made to Be Different – Connor's isn't just switching lanes; it's making a statement.
In Asian society, young people often face expectations to pursue certain careers or conform to particular standards of appearance. Connor's aims to inspire them to break free from these norms, encouraging courage and challenging conformity. It's here to be real – flavour-first, unapologetically smooth, and proud of it. Connor's is for those who seek to carve their own path, fuelled by their trailblazing spirit. Different? Absolutely. But always made right.
'Connor's was born to break conventions and stereotypes of the beer category. That is why we want to help our consumers fuel the courage it takes to defy the expected and carve out their own path,' said Olga Pulyaeva, Marketing Director at Carlsberg Malaysia.
'We're not just serving an award-winning stout; we're building a brand that resonates with the community of challengers to uncover new possibilities. Connor's stands apart by staying authentic – to our craft, our values, and the drinkers who connect with what we stand for.'
It's not just about encouraging bold moves, Connor's is walking the talk. That's why Connor's has teamed up with Doubleback, an unconventional streetwear brand that lives to challenge the status quo, just like Connor's. Together, they're rewriting the rules and pushing the culture forward by dropping the Connor's x Doubleback: The Duffleback Backpack – where form meets function in a sleek, premium hybrid that shifts with your rhythm as a hand-carry or backpack mode, this one moves how you move. With 1,500 units worth RM900 each up for grabs nationwide, this collaboration puts RM1.3 million worth of exclusive prizes into the hands of those courageous and ready to embrace the unconventional.
Getting in on it is easy. Just grab Connor's from bars, cafés, restaurants, supermarkets, hypermarkets, convenience stores, Shopee and Grab. Whether it's a can or a pint, every purchase puts you closer to owning a piece of this standout collab merch. Connor's is a stout with attitude, and it's 'Made to be Different'. But they ain't stopping there.
On 12th July, Connor's will be launching Connor's Collective at Heritage Valley KL – an all-day experience where the trailblazing community connects, creates and vibes. Witness up-and-coming DJs, bands and entrepreneurs who ditch the conventional and do their own thing. Connor's Collective is a space for the community that wants to express, disrupt, and live life Made to Be Different.
But the experience doesn't end there. Connor's is bringing the signature Shake & Sip serve to over 120 spots nationwide. Plus, keep an eye out for Connor's vending machines at selected locations and grab your chance to win exclusive merch with every Connor's purchase.
In a category often tied to tradition and formality, Connor's is carving out its own path. With its creamy profile and unique coffee notes, this smooth, memorable stout is brewed for the next generation of trailblazers – unapologetically easy to enjoy.

YEONJUN Just Became Asia's Coolest Cider Ambassador – Free Drinks & Exclusive Merch Incoming

Subscribe to our FREE If you've been doom-scrolling through another Tuesday morning, wondering why adulting feels like an endless cycle of nonsense, Somersby has found the perfect person to commiserate with you: Let's be real – YEONJUN was basically born for this gig. The guy's known for his cheeky humour, his 'I 'll-do-it-my-way' attitude, and yes, his well-documented love affair with apples. It's like the universe conspired to create the perfect apple cider ambassador, complete with killer dance moves and a fan base that spans continents. When Life Gives You Nonsense, Grab a Cider (And Some Freebies) Somersby's new campaign isn't your typical celebrity endorsement where someone awkwardly holds a product and pretends it changed their life. Instead, it's built around a truth we can all relate to: adulting is full of absolute nonsense. Between work pressure, social expectations, and the general chaos of existing in 2025, sometimes you just need something refreshingly straightforward. 'As one of the world's most popular fruit-flavoured alcoholic beverages, Somersby continues to grow its relevance in Malaysia by tapping into authentic cultural voices and moments that matter,' said Olga Pulyaeva, Marketing Director of Carlsberg Malaysia. YEONJUN isn't just a familiar face, he represents the generation that values authenticity, individuality, and playfulness. This isn't your typical celebrity endorsement. We're building something long-lasting, creating genuine connections with fans who crave fresh, meaningful experiences that go beyond just great taste. The campaign film shows YEONJUN doing what he does best – being authentically himself while casually tossing aside all the usual advertising clichés. It's the kind of energy that makes you want to crack open a cold one and forget about your overflowing inbox for a hot minute. (Pix: Instagram/ Free Drinks and Exclusive Merch? Say Less Here's where things get interesting for your wallet and your weekend plans. While Somersby's takeover at Pavilion Kuala Lumpur has wrapped up (hope you caught those free samples!), the real treasure hunt is just getting started. Here's the deal for K-pop fans: Somersby is dropping exclusive YEONJUN postcards throughout July. We're talking four different designs that'll make your Instagram feed infinitely cooler and your friends infinitely more jealous. Buy any eight bottles or cans of any Somersby products in one receipt from 1-31 July, and these collector's items are yours while stocks last. Think about it – you're probably planning weekend hangouts anyway, and now you can stock up for multiple sessions while scoring limited-edition merch that'll probably be worth something on the resale market (not that we're encouraging that, but just saying). (Pix: Instagram/ The Real Win for Fans Beyond the exclusive postcards, this whole campaign speaks to something bigger. In a world where everything feels performative and over-complicated, there's something genuinely refreshing about a brand and an artist who are willing to just… be real. Whether you're winding down after a brutal work week, catching up with friends on the weekend, or need an excuse to step away from the endless scroll of social media, sometimes the answer is as simple as a chilled cider and good company. Plus, now you get to do it with YEONJUN's stamp of approval and some pretty sweet collectibles. The math is simple: you get refreshing drinks for your social gatherings, exclusive K-pop merch, and the satisfaction of supporting a campaign that gets what it's like to navigate modern life without taking everything so damn seriously. Keep tabs on all the Somersby action by following Just remember – all activities are for non-Muslims aged 21 and above, and if you drink, don't drive. Because being responsible is actually the coolest thing you can do. Now excuse us while we calculate how many friends we need to invite over to justify buying 8 bottles for those YEONJUN postcards.

Malaysian Bars Coley KL & Backdoor Bodega Penang Make Into Asia's 100 Best Bars List

Have you ever been bar hopping around Malaysia? The bright lights, city skylines and of course, excellent cocktails and mixes are what to expect when going for a night out with the gals or pals. Well, what if we told you that you might've stumbled upon one of Asia's best bars during your free time? Ahead of the reveal of Asia's 50 Best Bars list, 50 Best announced Asia's 51-100 best bars for 2025, with 2 Malaysian bars included in the list. Coley Kuala Lumpur and Backdoor Bodega Penang were among the entries taking up spots No.92 and No.64, respectively. Nestled in the quiet corners of Bangsar, off Jalan Abdullah, Coley Kuala Lumpur stands as one of Malaysia's top bars with a frequent appearance on the Asia Best Bars list. Introducing its wide selection of cocktails that infuse an Asian twist to its mixes and its extensive food menu to complement each drink, Coley KL remains a favourite as it has remained on the list since its debut at No.48 in 2018. Meanwhile, Backdoor Bodega, sitting at No.64, has proved to be a fan favourite since its debut in 2022. Describing itself as an 'overpriced pin shop in the heart of Georgetown, Penang', guests can score a complimentary cocktail when they purchase a lapel pin at their outlet. This speakeasy mixes its cocktails with fresh resources from the tropical island itself, including mixes with pandan and belacan. There could be more Malaysian bars on the 50 Best's list as the Top 50 have yet to be revealed. Don't miss out on the awards ceremony's live stream for Asia 50 Best Bars on 50 Best's YouTube Channel on 15th July 2025 (Tuesday) at 8pm.
