Little Orchard Series Release Day
Each month, we carefully craft a limited-release cider with fresh fruit and thoughtfully selected herbs or botanicals, creating distinctive flavor profiles you won't find anywhere else.
You can enjoy these special ciders fresh on draft at the CiderHouse, take them home in growlers, or find them at select partner bars and restaurants throughout the area. Because each release is limited and crafted in small batches, every month brings a new opportunity to experience something truly special.
