Carlsberg – Probably the Best Year of Golden Opportunities @ Pavilion

Carlsberg – Probably the Best Year of Golden Opportunities. Back before alarm clocks jolted us awake to greet the dawn, rooster perched on the rooftop with its symbolic cock-a-doodle-doo. Always the early bird filled with positivity, joyfulness and gratitude, the rooster claims his place, welcoming a brand-new day – a day filled with opportunities. Taking inspiration from the mandarin pronunciation of rooster（鸡 jī), which bears the same pronunciation as ‘Opportunity’（机 jī ),  Carlsberg, probably the best beer in the world, wishes all a year filled with golden opportunities!

Opportunities start from this little booth from chicken laying eggs and guess which prize you will get to walk away. Also taking this opportunity to introduce their latest product innovation, Carlsberg Smooth Draught.

At the event we were amazed with the 6 feet tall ‘Golden Rooster’ icon formed by auspicious four Chinese characters处处生机 [chù chù sheng jī]. Upon the tapping of Carlsberg Smooth Draught beer by Managing Director of Carlsberg Malaysia Lars Lehmann, the brand’s iconic hop leaf lighted up, spinning its weather vane at 360 degrees as confetti burst to usher in the year of opportunities.

“Chinese New Year is a festive period that runs through our veins at Carlsberg Malaysia. With the , that offers consumers the smooth sensation of a freshly tapped beer, we are sure that this brew will complement “Probably the Best Beer in the World – Carlsberg this festive season. Cheers to a year filled with golden opportunities,” shared Lehmann in his opening address.
