All too often, cider gets lumped into one, overarching category. The truth is that there is a huge range of Pennsylvania ciders to discover! Consider that wine is made with one shared ingredient — grapes — but can express itself in many ways. In a similar way, PA craft cider offers a rainbow of flavors and colors. Different types and varieties of apples, methods and techniques used by cider makers, plus additional ingredients, all come together to create a unique array of ciders.
These include:
- Traditional cider
- Modern cider, both sweet and dry
- Sour cider
- Fruit cider
- Hopped and spiced cider
- Wood-aged cider
- Dessert cider
- and more!
From light and fresh to robust and bold, there is truly a Pennsylvania cider for every taste. Check out our video for an intro to some of the most common PA cider styles. The more you taste and try, the more you’ll learn which ones are your favorites!
