Our only issue was that we couldn't buy the new-to-us flavor where we live, so we tried to purchase a pack of it there. Unfortunately, Sunday at 3pm seems to be a peak time and you can't check out everything at the bar. Waited at the merch stand for 15 mins and the poor guy couldn't catch a break. We had to leave. We probably won't be coming back because we ultimately got to try new things so we'll just settle for buying our ciders elsewhere.

My favorite is the Hidden Star cider! it's just the right balance not too sweet and not too dry! It's very light and you can really taste the apples! it's such a fresh taste not artificial. Not highly carbonated either! i love it. Also my fav is the Black Currant cider, it pairs perfectly for Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners! We always pick up some bottles when we stop for cider donuts and apples!

We ended up trying a flight and honestly, every single cider was better than the last.

We came in right when they opened and were greeted warmly by Byron Jr. and also met Byron Sr. who was out back tending to the the animals. Both father and son were so kind and informative and made us feel like family. We had four kids with us and they were super sweet with them and had non alcoholic apple cider available for them so they could included. All the adults got flights and Byron took his time walking us through all the flavors and ensuring we had a flight specific to each of us. The atmosphere is super cozy and the fireplace made a nice touch since it was pretty chilly out when we came. I would come here often if I lived in the area. Loved it.

It was very crowded when we arrived but they had ample parking without any issue finding a spot. We each ordered a flight of ciders so we had about 8 different ciders to try. We loved them all. My favorite was the blueberry, you could actually taste the fruit and it wasn't super sweet which I loved. They had some indoor seating and out door seating with picnic tables. They only had a select few of umbrellas, out biggest complaint was we wish they had more because we were baking in the sun. They have a couple of port-a-potties to use and a watercooler and cups. The view of the mountain ranges was amazing and beautiful. We will be back.

The process to eat/drink a bit clunky as you get in line for your first order, and the wait staff will assist on any second orders as you ae seated. The food and drinks were good. Lots of pizza, pretzels and cheese platters were flying out the kitchen. Upstairs was more of a self serve - jelly, popcorn, ice cream and apples . The real bonus is the Awesome Views, Mt Kearsarge and many others. Overall a casual atmosphere, a band on weekends.

We elected to sit outside on the deck under an umbrella. We could hear the band from the Japanese restaurant next door. I ordered a flight which consisted of four ciders that I could choose. The server wrote the initials of my choices on a board and told me what they were. I ordered less sweet, more dry kinds. There were subtle differences between them based on the fruit notes. I did miss getting a Huckleberry flavor like I do when I go to Washington state. Our server was upbeat and friendly even though we only ordered drinks. Tip: To enter, use the doors that say "use other door," I thought the arrow was saying go to an entrance around the building but that was an employee only door.
