OnlyCans

Angry Orchard doesn’t do anything by the book. So when April Fools was approaching, we said ‘we’re not teasing anyone, we’re following through.’ Our best performing posts are always glamour shots of our cans of hard cider… So we gave them what they wanted. We launched the first-ever account exclusively for hard cider freaks: OnlyCans.

 

For 24 hours, our Instagram went… completely unhinged.

Every post. Every Story. Every Reel. Nothing but cans — in the most suggestive situations you can legally post without getting banned.

The climax?
A 4-hour livestream where our… talent…Sat around. Sweating. Being cracked open. And… getting poured.

We already saw the success of this stunt as we were toweling off and returning the account to its original form.

Only Cans was a real social move with real results. No fakeouts. No apologies. Just a brand willing to go all the way… for the freaks.
