ELIGIBILITY: Angry Orchard® World’s Angriest Hotline (the “Promotion”) is open to legal residents of the United States who are at least twenty-one (21) years of age at the time of entry. Employees (and their immediate families) of The Angry Orchard Cider Company (the “Sponsor”), and any of their parents, subsidiaries, affiliates, suppliers, independent contractors, agencies, alcoholic beverage wholesalers and retailers, and any persons living in the same household as such employees are not eligible to participate in the Promotion (cumulatively, the “Promotion Entities”). Promotion is subject to all applicable federal, state, local laws and regulations and is void where prohibited by law. The Promotion begins on June 27, 2025, and ends July 11, 2025 at 11:59:59 pm EDT (the “Promotion Period”).

HOW TO PARTICIPATE: During the Promotion Period, fans can dial the Promotion hotline at 1-84-I-AM-ANGRY to share their light-hearted and relatable expressions of irritation – from lengthy rants to drawn out sighs, or even screams of sheer frustration. Angry Orchard will turn these rants into refreshment by infusing the raw emotion of fans’ angry voices into a fiery, limited-edition liquid that will become the World’s Angriest Cider.

Limited one (1) entry per person, regardless of method of entry. Duplicate entries for a single individual will be disqualified. All entries become the property of the Sponsor.
