Beer-filled fridges to be opened with a Canadian passport

Official sponsor of the Canadian Olympic team, the brewer, Molson Canadian, has installed fridges full of beers worldwide. Only Canadians can scan their passports to open them and offer them around.

Official sponsor of the Canadian Olympic team, the beer brand, Molson, has just installed a red fridge full of beers in the Canadian Olympic house in Sotchi. The content is free, but you first need to insert a Canadian passport into the terminal. The machine scans the document, checks the nationality and opens the door to the fridge.

"We knew that Sotchi was the ideal place for the passport-fridge. We are bringing part of home to Sotchi so that the athletes and other Canadians feel at home", explains Forest Kenney, spokesman for Molson Canadian to the Montreal Journal.

But this is not the brand's first try. Modules have already been installed in several European cities, to raise brand awareness outside Canada. Some are located in the centre of London, in the North of France, on the white cliffs at Dover and in Brussels.
