Connor’s Stout Porter Draught, Now in a Can!

What's better than having a cold draught beer after a hard day of work?
Imagine an ice cold beer hits the throat with smooth and soothing refreshment to start your evening's rest and relaxation, sounds perfect, isn't?
I'm beyond excited to know that Connor’s Stout Porter is introducing another innovation with Connor’s Draught in a can, giving stout lovers the opportunity to ‘Taste the Good Times’ anywhere, anytime! 
Yea! We can now enjoy mouth-watering smooth draught at home without stepping out of our house.
With the first-ever use of nitrogen double-dosing in a can, which is also a first among all Carlsberg markets globally, you can now enjoy the Connor’s draught experience both at home and at your favourite bars. 
As a bonus, the new shake-before-opening ritual is not only surprising and fun, it’s also crucial in recreating the look and taste of premium stout straight from the draught tap.
To give consumers more reasons to enjoy the Connor’s Draught experience in a can, Connor’s is also introducing a slew of promotions throughout the months of April and May.
Continue to read on and find out the exciting deals and prizes from Connor’s Stout Porter! :)



Inspired by the original British Stout Porter recipe from the 1700s, Connor’s Stout Porter is currently available in Malaysia and Singapore and is fully brewed using a unique blend of four premium malts including lager malt, caramel malt, brown malt and roasted barley for a unique balance of bitterness and robustness with gentle roasted caramel and coffee undertones.
This brand-new innovation retains the creamy head and gentle roasty undertones that Connor’s Stout Porter fans love at bars, but now in a ready-to-enjoy format so they can enjoy the good taste of draught stout in the comfort of their homes. 
To achieve this, the British-inspired brew is double-dosed with nitrogen before canning to maintain its iconic smooth head and fine cascading effect when freshly poured.


Consumers can easily recreate the draught stout experience wherever they are through a serving ritual unique to Connor’s Stout Porter in cans. 
First, the can needs to be chilled to 5° to 8°C.
Before opening, the can then needs to be shaken gently until there is no sound to ensure the nitrogen is mixed evenly into the brew. 
Lastly, open the can and pour at a 45° angle into a clean glass and enjoy the cascading effect while waiting for the creamy head to form.


Connor’s cans come in 320ml and 500ml sizes in a stylish design inspired by British pubs and will be available at supermarkets, hypermarkets, convenience stores, e-retailers and selected bars, bistros and restaurants from April.
