Fall is the perfect season to savor the comforting and familiar flavor of cider, and this Halloween, Angry Orchard Hard Cider is introducing its largest cider bottle to date. Inspired by the houses that share king-size candy bars during trick-or-treating, the brand created a king-size bottle that comes in at six liters, or more than 16 times the size of the standard Crisp Apple bottle.
This limited-edition bottle is being shipped directly to drinkers' doors while supplies last, and those in proximity to Angry Orchard in New York's Hudson Valley can also purchase the big bottle on-site. This large bottle is as perfect for sharing with friends as it is pairing with favorite Halloween candies.
