**Tennent’s will donate 5p to charity for every pint of Tennent’s Lager, Caledonia
Best and Tennent’s Original Export sold across the whole of Scotland.**

Scottish brewer Tennent Caledonian is today donating 5p from the sale of each of
its draught beer sales in Scotland to [Capability Scotland](http://www.capability-scotland.org.uk).
It is its way of marking the success of Scotland’s medal winning Olympic and Paralympic
athletes as they parade through Glasgow.

Capability Scotland was selected to benefit because of its work supporting disabled
people to access sports and leisure activities.

[Tennent’s](http://www.tennents.com) will also celebrate Scotland’s athletes’ achievements
this summer by producing 1,000 commemorative bottles of its premium export lager,
Tennent’s Original Export, which will feature a gold version of the iconic Tennent’s‘
T’ bottle and pack, designed especially for the occasion.
Managing Director of Tennent
Caledonian John Gilligan comments: “Everyone at Tennent’s agreed that we wanted 
to do something special to mark [the athletes’] victory parade on behalf of our 
business, our customers and all Tennent’s drinkers.

So for one day on the 14th of September, everyone across Scotland can toast our 
athletes and be part of the celebrations, knowing that they’re raising some funds
for a truly worthwhile cause in the process.

“And the lucky onesmay be able to get their hands on one of our limited edition 
Tennent’s Original Export Beer bottles as a keepsake from the day, which I’m sure
will be like gold dust themselves once they’re released!”
