				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><b>THE GROWING POPULARITY OF NIUGINI ICE HAS PROMPTED SP BREWERY TO UNVEIL A FRESH NEW LOOK FOR PAPUA NEW GUINEA’S FAVOURITE ICE BEER.</b></p>
<p>First launched by SP Brewery in 1995, Niugini Ice is enjoyed by the young and stylish who savour its crisp, clean taste. Inspired by the cool colours of blue and silver, the new look reflects the beer’s icy heritage and contemporary feel. Niugini Ice’s award-winning taste still remains the same. SP Brewery General Manager Stan Joyce said Niugini Ice’s fresh new look and refreshing taste was guaranteed to get the party started. “Niugini Ice has developed a legion of loyal followers and never more so than during the past 12 months when it was the fastest growing brand of all local beers&#8221;. Mr. Joyce affirmed that &#8220;The time was right to update the look of Niugini Ice to ensure it kept pace with the latest fashions and styles.”</p>
<p>The Niugini Ice new look was officially launched at an exclusive invitation-only party at Lamana Hotel’s The Gold Club on Thursday the 18th of April 2013, featuring one of  New Zealand’s international artists Scribe.</p>
