John McMullen, chief executive officer and director of CLV, stated: "The global launch of OBMJ beers in London has been very successful and the levels of interest in our unique beers has exceeded CLV's original expectations. The global beverage market has been expanding rapidly into the craft beverage lines. With highly individualized and independent young adults demanding a high-end selection of beverages to choose from, CLV caters to this growing market and provides a connection with flavours and experiences that the global consumer can fully enjoy."

Creso's co-founder and chief executive officer, Dr. Miri Halperin Wernli, said: "We are very excited about the launch of these unique creative products infused with natural organic blends that bring exciting flavours and aromas.

Paul Baxendale, Baltic Beer Company's managing director and sales and marketing director, stated: "We were delighted with the success of the OBMJ launch in London. The liquids were really well received and response to the branding was extremely positive. There was a much greater level of understanding in relation to these unique beers than we expected, and we are confident that OBMJ can secure a prominent place in the market. We now move to launch the OBMJ brand in Germany."
