Join us for a night of tasting, snacks, and a chance to chat with cider enthusiasts across Virginia.
Virginia cideries go head-to-head in this annual competition to showcase the state's best in certain styles of ciders. This year’s theme will compare the humble Crab apple either as a blend or single varietal from each cidery.
Your tickets will include:
- A mini-workshop on how to taste cider
- The blind tasting competition
- To vote on your favorite
- enjoy some snacks from our grazing table
- To meet & greet with your local cider professionals & cider makers.
We’re keeping things casual with a tasting session beginning at 5 pm which will include a mini-workshop on how to taste cider. Visit our grazing table throughout the evening, submit your vote and stick around for the winner's announcement at the evening's end! The winners announcement will be at 6:45pm.
Doors open at 5pm on Saturday, November 16th
