Crystal Head Vodka, known for its signature skull bottle, announced at the beginning of the month the launch of its limited-edition “Paint Your Pride” bottle. 

The release of this colorful bottle follows the success of the rainbow bottle launched in June 2020, in honor of Pride Month. The specialty Pride bottle displays a vibrant, paint-splattered design against a white bottle to artistically house Crystal Head’s original Canadian corn-based vodka. 

“We’re ecstatic about the launch of the “Paint Your Pride” bottle, utilizing art as a form of empowerment while inspiring social change and fostering community,” said Dan Aykroyd, Crystal Head Vodka founder, actor and comedian. “Art is an essential tool of empowerment LGBTQ+ creators embrace as a means of positive visibility and proud, authentic self-representation. We’re thrilled that this bottle embodies these values quintessential to the Crystal Head brand and LGBTQ+ community.” 

Crystal Head Vodka is showing its commitment to supporting LGBTQ+ communities with continuous global efforts throughout the year. The brand is dedicated to using its platform as a tool to educate, support, and value its partnerships with LGBTQ+ communities around the world, such as Boston Globe Sip The Rainbow, Human Rights Campaign, Kaleidoscope Trust, Mid-South Pride and Test Positive Awareness Network (TPAN), among others. 

Crystal Head is a Canadian Vodka brand founded by Aykroyd and artist John Alexander in 2008. The Crystal Head bottle was designed by the creative pair as a symbol of life, reflecting power and enlightenment. 

The brand must be very proud of its unique bottle, since late last year Cyrstal Head Vodka sued department store giant, TJ Maxx over allegedly selling skull-shaped glass bottles that infringed on the design rights of the brand. 

Crystal Head Vodka’s “Paint Your Pride” bottle is available in limited quantity at select markets for Pride Month and while supplies last.
