Madrí Excepcional, the European-style lager taking the UK by storm, has today unveiled its first ever ad campaign, ‘Door Roja’. Devised by Molson Coors’ lead UK creative agency Havas London, the £3.5m campaign aims to build on the brand’s early on-trade momentum, establish it in the off-trade in the UK, and celebrate ‘El alma de Madrid’ – or ‘The Soul of Madrid’.
