If the weather tops 20°C

Budweiser has created a new app that will guarantee punters a free pint of beer during summer days where the temperature reaches 20°C.

With the new Budweiser Ice Cold Index app, the hotter the day the less you pay for a pint of Budweiser Ice Cold. If the weather conditions are right, Facebook users can download a voucher they can present at participating bars.

The Budweiser Ice Cold Index means that on days reaching 20°C and over, consumers will enjoy a free pint.

There will be €2 off when it’s 18°C or 19°C outside, and for 16°C or 17°C weather, there will be €1 off at participating Index bars.

You can check the day’s offer via the app, which will update you on the temperature of your region each day at 1pm.

By downloading the Budweiser Ice Cold mobile app, consumers can avail of these offers from today until 31 August.

The Budweiser Ice Cold Index App is free and can be downloaded on most smartphones. For all other phones, free text the word ‘INDEX’ to 50400.

I can see it playing out like this in Dublin pubs:

- Here my iPhone says this pint is free.
- Oh really? Can I have a look?

Typical night out consists of a bottle or two of Bulmers, pint of Bud Ice, then Capt Morgans and Orange/Vodka and coke until I have no cash left.

Is that instead of a pint of water to ease the hangover?

very heavily advertised on radio - so got me curious to see what the app was like - even though I wouldnt have drunk the stuff - but its not working anyway....

Sorry guys, we've had such a big response to the Budweiser Ice Cold Index App, that we're having some issues on our servers. We've decided to put the Ice Cold Index on hold for a short while and remove the app from the stores whilst we fix the problem.
If you've already downloaded the app you won't be able to use it for a little while. If you registered your email within the app we'll drop you a line as soon as we're up and running again. If not, check back here for updates.
Don't worry, there's still a whole lot of summer to come (the campaign runs until August) so bear with us, it won't take long. Apologies again.

“Roll it back”
