Spider-Man and Iron Man are reuniting and this time, it's behind the bar.
Tom Holland and Robert Downey Jr. have teamed up once again, but instead of saving the world in true superhero style, they’re crafting it one sip at a time.
The Marvel icons have announced a new collaboration blending their respective ventures - Holland’s non-alcoholic beer brand Bero and Downey Jr.’s Happy Coffee - to release two limited-edition beverages, Bero Coffee Draught and Happy Eternal Hoptimist.

The partnership is more than a marketing move, and has been hailed as a celebration of the actors' longstanding friendship and shared appreciation for creativity, craft, and connection.
Downey Jr. said in a statement: "My friendship with Tom stems from mutual support and respect, and this partnership is exactly that — sharing what we love and creating quality products in tandem."
Holland echoed the sentiment as he added: "This is the kind of collaboration you can only do with a friend. Robert knows coffee better than anyone, and we wanted to bring that same level of care to a beer that celebrates what both our brands stand for: quality, craft, and a premium experience in every sip."
The Bero Coffee Draught is a coffee-forward take on a stout-style brew and, according to a press statement, promises to be rich, smooth, and completely alcohol-free. Featuring roasted malt, cocoa notes, and a creamy nitrogen finish, it's said to offer the flavours of a traditional dark beer with less than 0.5% ABV.
The Happy Eternal Hoptimist ground coffee takes inspiration from the beer world, and is made from 100% Arabica beans sourced from Brazil and Colombia. The roast incorporates bright citrus and pine undertones and is said to be a subtle nod to Bero’s signature hop character.
Both products share the same ethos of blending craftsmanship with a sense of fun and friendship. The packaging, branded under the BERO x Happy Coffee banner, features sleek minimalist design and playful nods to their on-screen personas and is a wink to fans who grew up watching the pair’s close on-screen bond in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
The limited-edition Bero Coffee Draught and Happy Eternal Hoptimist will be available online at berobrewing.com, happyproducts.com, and at select Target locations nationwide while supplies last.
This collaboration comes as the two actors gear up to share the screen once again in Avengers: Doomsday, set to hit the big screen on 18 December 2026. Until then, fans can toast to their enduring friendship with a cup or a pint.
Holland added: “It’s not just about beer or coffee - it’s about the joy of making something together, and enjoying every step of the process."
