Bucky Barnes drinks Tiger beer in episode 1 of The Falcon And The Winter Soldier

The Winter Soldier has officially 'endorsed' Singapore's Tiger beer. At least, that's what he's drinking in the first episode of The Falcon And The Winter Soldier, which dropped on Disney+ yesterday.

Without giving away spoilers, what we can tell you is that Bucky Barnes, aka the Winter Soldier in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, is seen taking swigs from a bottle of Singapore's national beer in a scene where he's on a date with a waitress at the restaurant where she works.At one point, there are three bottles of Tiger beer on the table before Bucky, so it seems like he's knocked back a few.

It's a Japanese restaurant, which might explain why an Asian beer brand like Tiger is served there.

Or, Tiger Beer simply forked out for a product placement in such a valuable property as a Marvel Studios production.

In a statement to Yahoo Lifestyle SEA, Sean O'Donnell, Global Brand Director for Tiger shared: "Because every superhero deserves a Tiger!"

"As a homegrown icon born in Singapore, we are so proud that our world-acclaimed Tiger Beer has made its way into a widely anticipated Marvel Studios production, The Falcon and The Winter Soldier. It is this continuous strong global appeal of Tiger Beer that makes us beam with local pride."
