Daily Beer, the company behind Korea's leading craft beer franchise, announced on January 14 that it is officially launching two of its signature beers—Daily Red Lager and Daily Light Lager—at CU convenience stores nationwide.
Having helped define Korea's craft beer market over the past 12 years, Daily Beer is expanding two of its best-selling beers, which have collectively surpassed 50 million servings sold, into the convenience store channel to make its products more accessible to consumers across the country.
Both Daily Red Lager and Daily Light Lager have already established strong reputations through the company's nationwide restaurant network, where they have consistently been among customers' favorite selections.
Unlike many beer brands that simply distribute products brewed by third parties, Daily Beer has built Korea's only fully integrated craft beer system, overseeing every stage of the business—from product planning and brewing to distribution and retail operations. The same vertically integrated production model is behind both beers now launching at CU.
The company's commitment to brewing excellence and sustainable industry development was recently recognized with the Presidential Commendation for Contributions to the Franchise Industry, reinforcing its position as one of Korea's leading craft beer brands.
Daily Red Lager (4.5% ABV), one of the brand's signature flagship beers, features an attractive ruby hue complemented by rich caramel malt flavors and delicate floral aromas. While preserving the depth and complexity expected of premium craft beer, it finishes with a crisp, clean character that appeals to both craft beer enthusiasts and mainstream consumers.
Joining the lineup is Daily Light Lager (4.0% ABV), developed in response to the growing "Healthy Pleasure" trend in the beverage industry. Brewed using a zero-sugar, low-calorie process, it offers a light and refreshing drinking experience while maintaining the authentic flavor of 100% premium all-malt ingredients. Rather than relying on artificial methods to reduce body, the beer delivers a clean, dry finish with the natural character of quality grains.
A representative from Daily Beer said, "Our launch at CU represents the culmination of 12 years of brewing expertise focused entirely on the essence of great beer. Consumers can now enjoy the same premium quality they experience at our restaurants through the convenience of their neighborhood CU store. We believe this launch will raise consumers' expectations for canned craft beer."
Daily Beer currently operates approximately 250 locations throughout Korea and continues to expand internationally, promoting Korean craft beer in overseas markets including Singapore, Thailand, and the United States while strengthening its position as a global K-craft beer brand.
