Heineken® 0.0 brings the L0VE.L0VE for both
moderation and tennis to one of tennis' most sought after
tournaments, the US Open, serving fans a premium experience in a
way that only Heineken® can
WHITE
PLAINS, N.Y., Aug. 14,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, Heineken, the leader in
zero alcohol beer, announced it will be transforming its
category-leading Heineken 0.0 in a nod to a 0-0 tennis score,
celebrating moderation at one of tennis' most iconic tournaments,
the US Open. Aptly titled "L0VE.L0VE", Heineken will turn Heineken
0.0 into a visual badge for a limited run, representing its love
for both moderation and racket sports. This comes not just as an
homage to a 0 score tennis which is referred to as a "love", but a
metaphor for the growing appeal for non-alcoholic beer – because
with a 0.0 start, anything is possible. Throughout the duration of
the tournament, Aug. 19 - Sept. 8,
the limited edition L0VE.L0VE Heineken 0.0 packaging will be
available exclusively at the US Open to celebrate the start of
every match and the endless outcomes when enjoying a zero alcohol
brew.
As a brand dedicated to responsible consumption, Heineken 0.0
was one of the first major products in the alcohol-free space,
first launching globally in 2017 and then the U.S. in 2019.
Heineken knows that there are so many reasons why people don't want
to or can't drink alcohol, which is why it's excited to bring
L0VE.L0VE to the US Open, reminding fans they always have a choice.
The product contains zero alcohol while including the same great
taste and ingredients as Heineken® Original. Whether playing a
casual game with friends or watching the best in the world, with
Heineken® 0.0 now you can enjoy a beer anytime or anywhere.
"Heineken looks for partnerships not sponsorships, and has been
a partner of the US Open for over three decades. We're excited to
reimagine and up-level this year through L0VE.L0VE with Heineken
0.0," stated HEINEKEN USA Chief
Marketing Officer, Jonnie Cahill.
"Our goal is to bring people to enjoy tennis together, so we're
eager to show tennis fans and beyond that moderation is cool and
that whether or not they're choosing to drink alcohol, Heineken has
a brew for everyone."
Heineken is passionate about serving fans both on and off the
court with premium sips and experiences, and will be teaming up
with well-known tennis couple Taylor
Fritz and Morgan Riddle to
celebrate the launch of L0VE.L0VE.
"We're both thrilled to partner with Heineken 0.0 for the US
Open. As we travel together for the ATP Tour, it's important for us
to find that balance between intense training and downtime. Having
an alcohol-free option like Heineken 0.0 is a perfect match for our
lifestyle. It's become our go-to for enjoying a great brew without
compromising on taste, no matter where we are. Tennis is a huge
part of our lives, and partnering with a brand that shares our
passion for the sport and moderation makes this collaboration even
more meaningful. We can't wait to experience Heineken L0VE.L0VE at
the US Open with fans and show that it's always possible to enjoy
responsibly, on or off the court," said Taylor Fritz and Morgan
Riddle.
The brand will also be providing an opportunity for lucky fans
across the country to experience L0VE.L0VE for themselves live at
the US Open. By visiting

refreshing beverage anywhere during the US Open. Along with the
limited edition Heineken 0.0 L0VE.L0VE packaging, Heineken® Silver,
the world-class light beer with low-cal and low-carbs, will be
available exclusively on tap for the first time at the US Open - a
perfect choice for those seeking a crisp and refreshing light beer
option. Additionally, for the first time at US Open Fan Week,
