What’s better than chilling with your crew on a breezy day? Doing it with a full bucket of ice-cold beer and saving while you're at it.
Atmosphere is serving up the perfect vibe with Afromile’s Full Bucket Deal, that's 10 bottles of beer for just 1154.25 birr instead of the usual 1215 birr. That’s a refreshing 5% off, just because you went through afromile.

Perfect for pre-games, post-work wind-downs, or those random “let’s just have one” nights that somehow turn legendary. Grab the deal while it's chilled and enjoy.
