Madrid, 27 November 2018- When you travel to a new city, you delve into its customs, its gastronomy, its people, and very often, its beer. When in Madrid, that beer will surely be Mahou, produced in the heart of Spain since 1890. Now, the brand would like to share its hometown heritage with beer lovers from the USA through its new campaign, “This is Madrid”.

With a series of short videos, Mahou Cinco Estrellas unveils the keys to living like a local in Madrid through its beer: including simple tricks for proper pronunciation of the language, dishes that must be sampled, must see sights and of course, how to enjoy a delicious Mahou. Because no matter where you are, you can experience the best of Madrid and Spain: the terraces, tastes, sunsets and the warmth of the people, all in a glass of Mahou.

The campaign will feature eight pieces of content over three months across the brand’s digital platforms, alongside various promotions for international consumers to experience Mahou’s true Madrid.

Consumers can already get a first taste with the initial release of three videos from the series on Mahou’s website: https://www.mahou.com/us/this-is-madrid/

In addition, travellers passing through Madrid will also be able to share their photos with the hashtag #ThisIsMadrid with @Mahou_Beer (https://www.instagram.com/mahou_beer/). Each story will have the chance to be featured in a weekly map featuring the best ways to experience Mahou in the Spanish capital.
