Double Shovel is Alaska’s first micro-cidery, and its Instagram account is peppered with all the outdoorsy activities and ridiculously beautiful mountains you’d hope for from an Alaskan company. We love this shot of a golden cider-filled growler alongside a kayak and clear running river. You can almost taste the epic-ness.

Hello, Cherrybomb! Ironwood Hard Cider of Ontario, Canada, has made a cherry cider that looks absolutely gorgeous. In the peak of its harvest season, these local Montmorency cherries have a hue of red fiercer than the hottest of summer days. Bet this is easy to crush on a hot afternoon!

Western Cider Co.

Alliances forged (and brewed) in friendship! For a First Friday event in Missoula, Montana, Western Cider and Black Coffee Roasting Company came together to host a Cascara, Coffee, and Cider tasting at Black Coffee Roasting Company. Featuring Black Coffee’s Black Honey processed coffee and a cider brewed with cascara by Western Cider, this event proves that who #brewlocal together, stay together! Fun fact: Cascara is also known coffee cherry tea.
