Carlsberg, Holsten & Many More | Premier League Kit Alcohol Sponsors Over The Years

In 1992, football fans witnessed the first season of Premier League football. Quality-wise, England's first division should soon climb to new heights, while the new league also provided better advertisement options. Obviously, the alcohol industry, especially beer breweries, did not miss out on the fitting occasion of tying football and alcohol further together.

Big thanks to @classicshirts for touching on the subject first and providing crucial insights.

Back in the day, Blackburn, Liverpool, Nottingham Forest and Tottenham Hotspur (18% market share) were sponsored by McEwan's, Carlsberg, Shipstones and Holsten, respectively, while the betting sector crushed the kit sponsorship landscape in the 2019-20 Premier League season to sponsor 10 of the 20 teams. As a result, alcohol sponsors vanished on the front of Premier League teams.

Premier League Alcohol Sponsors

Check out some of the best home shirts of the 1992-93 Premier League debut season.

Ranking among the most iconic looks out of all time, Liverpool's 1992-93 home kit sponsored by Carlsberg features gigantic white 3 stripes on a satin red base. Additionally, Umbro's Tottenham Hotspur 92-93 home shirt sponsored by Holsten combines a clean white base with navy accents such as the stunning polo collar.

Last alcohol sponsor for now - Chang Beer for Everton in 2016-17

In recent years, alcohol sponsors within the Premier League saw a drastic decline as the 2019-20 Premier League season features no team sponsored by a brand affiliated with alcohol. Providing the last example, Umbro's Everton 2019-20 home uniform combines a sleek blue base with white accents in what is a clean look.

Schlotterbeck Deliberately Wears His Football Socks the Wrong Way Round

Borussia Dortmund and Germany defender Nico Schlotterbeck has a very specific habit regarding his matchday attire. The centre-back deliberately wears his football socks the wrong way round - the back is on the front, and the front is on the back.

In 2025, the Borussia Dortmund & Germany center back once told SPORT1 that this was one of his unique habits.
