TRULY HARD SELTZER INTRODUCES 'ORANGE SLICES' - A TASTE OF SOCCER NOSTALGIA AND A TOAST TO THE U.S. WOMEN'S NATIONAL TEAM

As The Official Hard Seltzer of U.S. Soccer, Truly Will Unite Fans Stateside and Down Under with Refreshing Experiences All Tournament Long

BOSTON, July 18, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Truly, the Official Hard Seltzer of U.S. Soccer, is elevating the fan experience as the U.S. Women's National Team begins its quest to clinch a three-peat win Down Under. To kick off celebrations, the brand is introducing new ways for fans to stay refreshed all tournament long.

Starting today, as a tribute to a generation that grew up playing soccer and enjoyed orange slices as a go-to halftime snack, Truly will introduce Truly Orange Slices in custom 16-ounce 4-packs. Truly Orange Slices will be available for purchase while supplies last during the world's biggest women's soccer tournament. With hints of orange and other citrus flavors, Truly Orange Slices delivers a light, bright, refreshing experience wrapped in team spirit that takes drinkers back to simpler times on the soccer field and big dreams for a W. This festive, limited time flavor will champion fans as they tune in around the world, and as a bonus Truly will host their own special events and engage in new partnerships to further celebrate this summer's biggest moment in sports.

"Truly is the drink of choice for a younger generation – a generation that grew up cherishing the quintessential orange halftime refreshment and looking up to early USWNT changemakers. Truly Orange Slices is our way of uniting fans and capturing the nostalgia of our best days on the soccer pitch as we cheers to the inspiring future of the sport," said Matt Withington, senior director of marketing for Truly Hard Seltzer. "This is a milestone moment in our first year as the Official Hard Seltzer of U.S. Soccer, and we're excited to bring fans together and give them a taste of victory."

This summer, soccer fans will also have the opportunity to show and sip their support by raising a toast with a U.S. Soccer crested 24-ounce Truly Wild Berry in hand. The U.S. Soccer crest will also appear on 12-ounce Mixed Berry packs, giving fans the option to easily carry around and sip with friends all summer long. Additionally, Truly is inviting fans to celebrate stateside with the U.S. Soccer x Truly Bar Network or Down Under with the American Outlaws, the largest U.S. Soccer fan coalition.

Truly Orange Slices
Wrapped in an eye-catching, U.S. Soccer crested can with celebratory soccer sayings, Truly Orange Slices will keep fans cool and comfortable during the biggest soccer moments this summer – much like the U.S. Women's National Team's backline throughout the global tournament. Fans interested in reviving memories of cherished halftime refreshment while cheering on the three-peat can find Truly Orange Slices exclusively at Give Them Beer and Truly L.A., sold in specially marked 4-packs of 16-ounce cans. Packs will retail for $23, in honor of the 2023 tournament and 23-player roster. Plus, one lucky drinker will be eligible to receive a 2023 U.S. Women's National Team jersey with their order.
