Asahi Super Dry Brings Its Iconic Nama Jokki Can to Chinese Mainland with Multi-Hyphenate Celebrity Henry Lau

Already a hit in Japan and other key Asian markets, the launch marks a bold new chapter in Asahi's premiumization journey in Chinese Mainland.

Nama Jokki Can delivers draft‑beer excitement to any occasion

The Nama Jokki Can delivers a draft‑style experience that closely mirrors freshly poured beer at a bar, all in a convenient can, and transforms the simple act of opening it into a more ceremonial sensory moment. With its innovative full‑open lid and special interior coating, fine foam forms naturally upon opening, recreating the rich, layered sensation and fresh taste of beer served at a bar or restaurant. Designed for contemporary drinking occasions, from social gatherings and casual nights with friends to music‑filled moments and everyday premium experiences, it offers a distinctive way to enjoy Asahi Super Dry.

Henry Lau brings a contemporary edge to Asahi Super Dry's draft‑style enjoyment

Asahi Super Dry has appointed Henry Lau as the launch ambassador for the Asahi Super Dry Nama Jokki Can in Chinese Mainland and as the face of the broader Asahi Super Dry line-up, including Asahi Dry Crystal and Asahi Dry Crystal 3.5. Henry has built a multifaceted international career as a singer, actor, and music producer, combining a global outlook with distinctive creative strength, earning wide recognition worldwide.

Lau's artistic identity closely reflects Asahi Super Dry's core values of craftmanship, modernity, innovation, and energy. His involvement connects Nama Jokki Can's distinctive draft‑style experience with contemporary cultural relevance for Chinese beer lovers.
