Background

Mother’s Day is huge in the Philippines. Moms get the most thoughtful gifts from their families. But Father’s Day? Not so much. Dads often get boring, generic gifts. San Miguel Beer wanted to change this and make dads feel just as celebrated on Father’s Day. The brand took the most clichéd dad gifts and reimagined them to contain something that all dads love: beer. Now, the most common gifts became dad-worthy, making Father’s Day the happiest that it can be for dads.

Describe the creative idea (40% of vote)

We took the most cliched dad gifts and redesigned them to conceal something that dads would really love to receive: beer. The Beer Necktie is both ready to wear and ready to drink. The Beer Frame holds favorite memories and his favorite beer. The Beer Trophy is best served cold with the Best Beer in the World inside. A film launched these reinvented gifts, and were readily made available just in time for the big day. By reinventing the way we packed our beer, we turned the day into the Happiest Father’s Day ever in the history of dads.
