Royal Arctika makes its mark on the international stage with Day Chiller and Night Strong at the World Drinks Awards 2026.
Royal Arctika is proud to announce that its two products, Day Chiller and Night Strong, have been honored at the World Drinks Awards 2026 (WDA 2026) — one of the international platforms dedicated to the global drinks industry, recognizing quality, creativity, and innovation from brands around the world. In 2026, the awards ceremony took place in London, bringing together producers, brands, designers, and industry professionals from across the global drinks industry.
A VIETNAMESE MARK ON THE INTERNATIONAL DRINKS MAP
At the World Drinks Awards 2026, Royal Arctika made its mark across two notable categories, showcasing both its spirit of product innovation and its internationally oriented design language.
Experimental Specialty Beer
Day Chiller competed in the Experimental Specialty Beer category, becoming the only representative from Vietnam to compete alongside entries from countries around the world.
This recognition marks a proud milestone for Royal Arctika as it continues to bring new ideas and perspectives to the beer-drinking experience. Combining European brewing heritage with a spirit of innovation, Day Chiller was developed as a beer designed to complement food while delivering a crisp, refreshing, and lasting sensation.
In particular, Day Chiller features Arctic Frost Effect™ — a technology that creates its distinctive cooling sensation, designed by Royal Arctika as a unique element of the beer-drinking experience. The product is crafted in a Light Lager style, with an alcohol content of 4.7% ABV and a 330 ml serving format.
New Launch Design
Beyond its product recognition, Royal Arctika was also recognized in the New Launch Design category for a design that embodies a distinctive, contemporary character while meeting international standards.
This recognition highlights the visual language of a newly launched brand with ambitions that extend beyond the domestic market — where design is not merely a tool for brand identification, but also an integral part of the brand story.
Inspired by the spirit of exploration and the imagery of the Arctic, Royal Arctika has developed a distinctive visual identity that combines contemporary aesthetics with a pioneering spirit — reflecting the brand philosophy of “The Heart of an Explorer.”
MORE THAN 35 YEARS OF EUROPEAN BREWING HERITAGE
Royal Arctika’s achievements at the World Drinks Awards 2026 build upon a foundation of more than 35 years of brewing experience rooted in renowned European brewing traditions, including those of Germany, Denmark, the Czech Republic, and Russia.
Building on this heritage, Royal Arctika pursues a distinctive approach: combining European brewing expertise with a spirit of innovation to create products with character and unique drinking experiences.
While Day Chiller represents refreshment and the spirit of food pairing, Night Strong offers a deeper drinking experience, balancing strength with smoothness. Crafted in a Strong Lager style with an alcohol content of 6.3% ABV, the product draws inspiration from layered notes reminiscent of whisky.
CONTINUING THE TASTE OF ADVENTURE
The two recognitions at the World Drinks Awards 2026 are not only an acknowledgment of Royal Arctika’s products and design, but also a source of inspiration for the brand to continue exploring new boundaries in the beer-drinking experience.
From carefully selected ingredients and brewing techniques refined through years of experience to the way each product is enjoyed, Royal Arctika believes that every memorable experience begins with the courage to explore.
Taste of Adventure is the journey Royal Arctika continues to write — discovering new flavors, new experiences, and new milestones on the international drinks map.
Royal Arctika sincerely thanks everyone who has accompanied and believed in the brand throughout this journey.
