Softly, softly
Perhaps they have discovered a new, soft approach to product launches. Very quietly and without major advertising in print, South African Breweries launched Sterling Light Lager in the market. Using imported crystal malt, SAB’s product developers have created a full tasting lager, low in both alcohol (2.5% Alc/Vol) and kilojoules (130kJ/100ml). Or so they claim.
