The Altitude Brew

| The idea:
When we fly, cabin pressure and altitude can dull our palate by up to 30% – often ruining our taste of food and drink.
This presented an opportunity for Cathay Pacific, who needed an innovative way to change negative perception about their customer service.
We created the world’s first beer scientifically crafted for 35,000FT.
We called it “Betsy” after our very first aircraft, and fused aviation science with a reinvented brewing process to combat the effects flying has on our sense of taste
