Giant bottles of booze are popping up just in time for the holidays, like Aldi's 6-liter bottle of prosecco and Smirnoff's vodka-filled oversized holiday ornaments, for example. But if you're a beer fan, the pickings have been pretty slim―until now.
Sainsbury's just announced they're releasing the UK's first magnum of Heineken. The 1.5-liter bottle comes in a festive green and it features gold fireworks and the Heineken red star. Additionally, the magnum bottle is topped with a cage and cork clasp so you can pop your bottle of beer.
The magnum will be available in Sainsbury's for a limited time starting in late November and it costs just £8.00.
Additionally, personalization stations will be available at select Sainsbury's across the UK on December 9 and December 15 (except for the Archer Road and Ellesmere Port locations, which have the stations on December 12), so customers will be able to add a photo message to branded gift boxes with the purchase of a Heineken magnum.
