The new product &#8211; a dry, crisp pale ale &#8211; is set to be a<br \/>\nhit with beer lovers and sun worshippers alike, boasting citrus and stone fruit notes that position it as the perfect drink for the upcoming summer sessions.<\/p>\n<p>The product\u2019s brightly coloured can and packaging design oozes connotations of positivity, summer vibes, and relaxation, with a sunglass-wearing, beer-drinking flamingo front and centre. To accompany the beer, there is a limited range of Men\u2019s Smugglers and Women\u2019s Smugglettes One Pieces also being released in the same vibrant design.<\/p>\n<p>Flamin\u2019 Good Pale launches to coincide with Mental Health Awareness Week, which focuses this year on the theme of anxiety. The product launch leads with the strapline: \u201cThe Only 6 Pack You Need This Summer\u201d, encouraging body positivity as the return of warm weather prompts Brits to fish out their Budgy Smugglers from the back of their drawers. A survey [2] from the Mental Health Foundation shows over one-third of British adults feel anxious because of their body image.<\/p>\n<p>Founded by ex-Rugby professional Greg Bateman, People\u2019s Captain\u2019s mission is to encourage consumers to make their social moments count, after Greg himself experienced first-hand how a pint with a mate can act as a vital platform towards prioritising your mental health.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re thrilled to be partnering with a brand as iconic as Budgy Smuggler,\u201d said Greg Bateman, founder of People\u2019s Captain. \u201cWith the warm weather returning, Budgy Smuggler\u2019s feel-good brand felt like a natural fit to work with to promote mental health and body positivity during the summer months. What we\u2019ve produced is what the name suggests, a flamin\u2019 good ale, and we hope this beer will be as refreshing as it is inspiring for people to reach out and connect with others.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>10% of sale proceeds will go towards the People\u2019s Captain Foundation. The foundation sits at the heart of the People\u2019s Captain brand, and is on a journey to raise \u00a31m to support mental health initiatives across the UK. By purchasing this product, consumers can enjoy a refreshing drink while contributing to a great cause.<\/p>\n<p>Bridget De Jong, Social Smuggling Strategist at Budgy Smuggler, commented: \u201cWe&#8217;re stoked to be working with People&#8217;s Captain to release this limited edition Flamin&#8217; Good Pale. It truly is the only 6<br \/>\npack you need this summer. We hope it can encourage people to crack a beer with their mates, start a conversation and have a laugh\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>The limited-edition 6 pack will be available to purchase for RRP \u00a315 from the People\u2019s Captain\u2019s and Budgy Smuggler UK websites on 15th May. Customers can expect a pale ale that not only tastes great but<br \/>\nalso comes with a positive message. As the weather gets warmer, there\u2019s no better time to crack open a cold beer, enjoy the sunshine, and start a conversation with your friends.
