Last month, Coors launched its first USDA-certified organic brew, Coors Pure, with a literal “Beer Run” in Central Park and a nationwide beer giveaway for drinkers who simply ran in the shape of a Coors Pure can. Now, Droga5 New York has turned out the brand’s first national campaign, which debuts with the tagline, “Organic, but Chill About it.”
Coors Pure is an organic beer with three simple ingredients: barley, hops and water, 0 sugar, and only 92 calories. It’s a beer that lets you drink and maintain your healthy lifestyle. If you like beer and you also run every now and then—this beer’s for you. If you remember to cycle sometimes but conveniently “forget” other times—this beer’s also for you. If you’re into ultra-marathons or hiking at 5 am. Then no, this beer is not for you.
To launch this balanced beer, the Droga5-conceived campaign recognizes average Joes and Janes who’re trying to live a more balanced life and celebrates their everyday fitness wins—whether that’s going out for a jog just to escape their kids or switching to a standing desk because of a scary article they read one day. If they tried to live better, they deserve a beer.
The two hero :30 spots for the campaign are titled “Running Mom” and “Standing Desk Matt”–both feature the voice of Ali Wong as a literal talking can of Coors Pure that comes to life after our hero opens it at the end of the day. Through Wong, we hear the beer hype our heroes up after reviewing their healthy-ish moments during the day. Why? Just because they tried.
Both spots, including this one, “Running Mom,” were directed by Jeff Low of Biscuit Filmworks.
