Jack Brabant, director of Cobra Beer presents Comedy at the Castle said: "With just over 10 weeks to go until the festival, we're so delighted to be able to announce Cobra Beer as headline sponsor for the weekend.
“Cobra is one of the most popular beer brands in the UK - we've seen firsthand at our venues just how popular it is via tap and fridges. Given how synonymous Cobra Beer is with eating quality authentic food, particularly Asian food, working with the team there seems like the perfect fit to enjoy some of the best outdoor dining offers in the UK alongside the best comedians in the world at Warwick Castle this May."
Since launching in 1989, Cobra has become the go-to beer in the market for its unique ability to accompany Asian food; brewed to sit neatly between a lager and an ale - Cobra is less carbonated than regular lager in order to complement a broad range of cuisines. The beer's distinctive low carbonation and smoothness make it the perfect accompaniment to dishes from around the world.
