BORN IN COLORADO IN 2011
Driven and inspired by our orchard on the Western Slope and the rich craft brewing industry of Colorado, we focus on the star of the show, the apple. Since selling our first (Dry) Glider in April of 2011 at the start of the renaissance of the cider industry, we’ve been focused on producing clean, crisp ciders using an extremely careful and meticulous process to get exceptional apple characteristics in every cider we make. From one of the first hopped ciders in the country, Grasshop-ah, to our premium bottles we continue to be dedicated to quality and flavor.
OUR ORCHARD
In 2013 we planted 1,000 of our very own cider apple trees on the Western Slope of Colorado and another 2,000 in 2014. So many varietals have come out of our orchard resulting in some amazing specialty ciders:
