"Bero was born out of a personal journey and I couldn't be prouder to be launching it today," the 28-year-old posted on social media on Oct 16 about the brand he created.

The star first opened up about his battle with alcohol during an appearance on English podcaster and author Jay Shetty's On Purpose podcast in July 2023.

Best known for playing the superhero Spider-Man in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Holland said then that he had not had an alcoholic drink in 18 months and that quitting alcohol was "the best thing I've ever done".

He elaborated on his sobriety journey during an interview with Forbes magazine published on Oct 16.
