IPA Drink-Drive Awareness Research
Tempcover commissioned research highlighting that many UK motorists don’t realise strong IPA craft beers can contain double the alcohol of regular lagers, warning a single pint could push drivers over the legal limit; the findings were published to generate media coverage and prompt safety awareness around drink‑driving and ABV labelling.
Why it worked: It reframed the “one pint is fine” rule with a counterintuitive stat—IPA ABV math—pegged to a Bank Holiday driving risk window.
The lesson: Consider testing a common safety myth with simple, surprising arithmetic and a timely calendar hook, then quantify the real-world consequence.
