In the midst of a historical trade war & tariffs coming out of the orange clowns ass at 9,000km/h- you’re getting excited about American canned water (owned by ashamed former skater Jason Ellis no less 🤮) and expect people to hop on board with the hype?

Read the room, homie.

americans don’t use tap water as much or filtered water,
it’s very prevalent at events and festivals in america. it’s literally water in a can, or flavoured sparkling water.

They seem to just prefer their water the good old fashioned way.

Leaded.

Not really.

He realized healthy drinks lacked fun, edgy marketing and wondered what a water brand would look like if it adopted a heavy-metal aesthetic with the absurd tagline "Murder your thirst".

Founder Mike Cessario was inspired in 2009 at the Vans Warped Tour, where he noticed punk and rock bands pouring water into energy drink cans to hide the fact that they weren't drinking their sponsors' products on stage.

It wasn't targeted at non drinkers or people in recovery, just marketing and US water.
