Mr. Asahi, World’s First Robotic Bartender in Malaysia

Early last week, I attended the launch of Mr. Asahi, the world's first robotic bartender, presented by Asahi Super Dry - the No.1 Japanese beer around the World in Grand ballroom, Sunway Resort.

The first ever mechanical barman to make its way here will be touring the country to meet Asahi fans and celebrate the availability of Asahi in draught, pints and cans nationwide, brewed exclusively by Carlsberg Malaysia in Shah Alam.

Mr. Asahi, the world’s first robotic barman, is the brainchild of Japanese brewer Asahi.

The advanced bartender is capable of serving people in less than two minutes, saving the average person 13 minutes at the bar. Capable of pulling 300ml pints and opening bottles, Mr. Asahi can serve up to 16 half pints or bottles at a time.

Mr.Asahi at your service.

“Asahi Super Dry is a premium beer that ignites possibilities. Instead of just rolling out the range of Asahi Super Dry’s product packaging in a conventional fashion, we imported Mr. Asahi to create a unique drinking experience by offering a one of its kind interaction with beer lovers. By brewing Asahi Super Dry locally, Malaysians can now enjoy the beer at refreshment outlets nationwide as its product freshness is assured. It is also competitively priced in the premium beer segment,” commented Soren Ravn, Managing Director of Carlsberg Malaysia.

The ultramodern robotic barman, Mr. Asahi is mobilized to go on a nationwide tour with a crew comprising of dancers, a DJ and a customized truck that unfolds into a mini party-space where ever he is. Consumers can order a beer from Mr. Asahi to try the clean, crisp and refreshing taste with no bitterness of Asahi Super Dry on draught and enjoy the entertainment and games lined-up to ignite all possibilities that one can anticipate from a premium beer.

The expedition will take Mr. Asahi and his entourage to key market squares and commercial centers in Kuala Lumpur, Malacca, Johor Bahru, Ipoh and Penang for 30 days beginning April 15, 2012. Beer lovers will be able to catch Mr. Asahi in action from Wednesday to Saturday’s from 5.00pm onwards in selected locations and will be able to follow the Mr. Asahi trail by logging onto facebook.com/AsahiMalaysia.
