The BACKSTORY
American Honey needed a more effective way to engage with on-premise consumers when sampling. The method needed to tie into their brand platform - Bad News For Boring - a four-word oath that eschews all things dull and mundane. So we went above and beyond by pitching and executing a brand new card game, perfect for keeping things interesting at the bar.
THE GAME
The 52-card game is all about eliminating those dull moments when you first get to the bar and need to "play a little catch-up." Engage with our ambassadors, and you'd walk away with the game, memories, and a bit more brand affinity. Samples below.
