The two-month promotion is taking place in 102 pubs throughout the country, including cities such as Edinburgh, London, Bath and Oxford.

The brand is giving away 102 free half-pint glasses of Budweiser Budvar Original to the first 102 people at each outlet.

The odd choice of figure has been chosen due to the brand’s heritage. The 700-year long tradition of brewing Budejovice beer juice means it takes 102 days to brew and condition the Budweiser Budvar – around seven times longer than most beers.

Tomorrow (13 August) will see the brand head to Royal Exchange, The Jeremy Bentham and Blue Anchor in London. The campaign will come to a close on 22 August.
