With every first order at select on-trade partners in Scotland, customers can also win by receiving a Heineken scratch card at the bar and are invited to visit the online competition page (www.thessehydro.com/partners/heineken) to enter and be in with the chance of winning VIP hospitality tickets. Winners will receive complimentary access to The Heineken Green Room hospitality suite and can enjoy shows such as ‘Michael McIntyre Big World Tour’, ‘Pete Tong & The Heritage Orchestra Ibiza Classics’ and more.

Although three in every four pints of lager poured in Scotland are from the classic lager category, growth is coming from the premium segment[3].
