Rexam’s plant in Milton Keynes, UK, has produced the 50cl beer cans.

"There is huge demand for German beer in China, which is why we decided to launch in this market first."

Denninghoffs CEO Thomas Kühn said: "There is huge demand for German beer in China, which is why we decided to launch in this market first. To mark the occasion, we wanted to innovate and moving to can seemed the perfect option.

"The design agency, Laut & Schoen, created the design on behalf of Denninghoffs and the Rexam team did an outstanding job of transferring the design onto the can, which will undoubtedly stand out on the shelf.

"We can’t wait to see the response from our Chinese consumers and are excited to roll the new format out globally."
