The non-alcohol beer’s branding has been featured on ESL Meisterschaft streams since May 19th and the brand will sponsor the pre-match segment for the grand finals, as well as provide its products to players, talent, and crew at the ESL studio.

Stephan Schröder, SVP Global Brand Partnerships EMEA at ESL, added: “We are very proud to have a top premium brand to this extent on board with Bitburger 0.0%. This is further evidence of our efforts to develop and expand engagements with fantastic partners. Especially in these difficult times, it is great to see that strong brands like Bitburger 0.0% continue to see the opportunities in our competitions.”

Esports Insider says: It makes a lot of sense to expand this regional partnership from the annual events to a more consistent league presence, especially at a time in which upcoming live events are still a big question mark.
