As part of its Premier League sponsorship, Guinness has unveiled a new campaign – developed with VML UK – for Guinness Foreign Extra Stout (FES).

Directed by Arthur Neumeier, the hero spot is packed with local colour as it conveys the passion of fans who follow the Premier League from afar. 

The concept derives from the fun fact that Guinness Foreign Extra Stout is called extra because it was originally brewed with extra hops and a higher gravity than Guinness Draught to help preserve the stout during long sea voyages. Hence the focus on devotion that travels thousands of miles from followers’ clubs.

Shot in Kenya, the spot uses a blend of 16mm analogue film and digital footage to capture the texture of authentic fandom - from customised merch and shared neighbourhood viewing rituals to footie-inspired braided hair.
