This International Stout Day, we invite everyone to embrace those real connections by sharing this reel (https://tinyurl.com/mu2rdfmz) and, ultimately, a Guinness.

The air was filled with a tantalising aroma of Guinness-infused delectables as chefs behind Kitchen Mafia, Tipsy Boar, Kao BBQ, Yat Sing and Caketella presented unique dishes that perfectly embodied the distinct Guinness flavour.

Shaun Lim, Marketing Manager of Wheat Beer, Stout, and Diageo Brands at Heineken Malaysia Berhad, reflected on the spirit of the event: “Guinness Matchday is more than just football—it's about bringing people together through shared passions. Whether you're a football fanatic or a Guinness lover, it’s a celebration of the perfect blend of the beautiful game and the perfect pint. Fans may debate their favourite football teams, but everyone agrees: it's always a Lovely Game for a Guinness. 

"We're thrilled to have revealed our first grand prize winner and can’t wait to see them enjoy the unforgettable Premier League experience that Guinness made possible.
