Cutest little venue lit with Edison bulbs across the ceiling, long craft wooden tables and lounge seating tucked into a building in North Loop. I'm not the biggest fan of ciders but came with a friend who highly recommended it. I asked for a recommendation from the bartender for a beer that was sweet but not tart or too much fruit and he recommended the Trilogy. It tasted like apple juice so pretty good! This cute place is a perfect stop before or after dinner for a date or with friends. There's also a flight option for anyone who's indecisive! Street parking was ample but I can imagine it gets pretty crowded on the weekends so take a ride share option if you can! read more

This is my favorite cidery in the Minneapolis area. I love the atmosphere whether you're there in the winter or in the summer when it all opens up. Both different experiences but equally as great. There's a good mixtures if ciders from sweet to dry and in between. Love coming back to this place! read more

Number Twelve Cider - Breweries Near Me - Minneapolis, Minnesota

See all

This is an excellent spot before a Twins game. It's literally across the street from the stadium. There are a few breweries and this place very near the stadium and each other. This is my top pick prior to a game. They have an excellent selection of ciders. I've tried several and like them all, but Barrel 44 is my favorite (so smooth). The folks serving are quick to offer suggestions. I've encountered a few now and they are all very knowledgeable. The space is large and calming. It never seems noisy in there. It's very clean and aesthetically pleasing. There is a pizza truck outside, possibly permanent, for wood fire pizzas. They also have gluten free, which was a pleasant surprise. read more

We found this little hidden gem today and I'm pretty sure it's our new favorite spot! Our afternoon adventure started with a stop at Inbound Brewco (another great place) and we spotted #12's sign from there. We moseyed over to #12 with no expectations. My girlfriend and I both ordered the "sweet" sampler flights, and ordered a sample of the Barrel 44. All were unique and delicious! I think the Barrel 44 was my personal favorite. We talked to the owners almost the entire time we were there and it was fun to hear their stories and passion for the cidery. Super nice people! We're definitely going to spread the word to friends and family to come check this place out. My girlfriend wants to go back tomorrow and try the "dry" flights and get one of their pizzas. Too soon? Nah!! read more

Not being big cider drinkers, my husband and I hadn't prioritized visiting here, but we tagged along with a friend recently and were pleasantly surprised! We both really enjoyed the Double Barrel cider. There was a large, dog-friendly outdoor space with picnic tables, food trucks and corn hole. The staff was nice- in fact, the owner stopped by our table to check in. It was crowded with a long line to get drinks but we were still able to find a spot with a larger group. We will be back! read more

Fun place! Came here on a week night with a friend. We each got a flight. I wasn't a huge fan of all of the ciders, but what there were a few that caught my attention. I'm excited to continuing going back and tasting new flavors. The spot itself is very large with a lot of seating, which includes and upstairs. It's a nice cidery smack dab in the middle of 4 larger North Loop breweries. read more

This place is DELIGHTFUL and I'm mad at myself for not visiting sooner! By far my favorite cidery in the Twin Cities. They have so many options, and such inventive and delicious options too - my favorites were Black Market and Empire. The space is big inside (and they have a patio with several picnic tables) and super cute. Friendly staff, amazing drinks, great atmosphere, what's not to love! read more

The ciders are good, not the strongest flavors but all very solid. The service was great and the indoor and outdoor seating provide great vibes for large and small groups alike. If you go to this spot you need to try the food truck, the pizza was the highlight of the visit! read more

I had the pepperoni pizza and the helix, and uncle fitz drinks. The pizza was solid, a great addition by the food truck to complement the overall vibe. Helix was a classic easy drinking cider while the uncle fits was a heavier alcohol forward adventure. read more

What a great spot! The cider slushy was amazing. I had a mix of the raspberry and pineapple, and what a treat on a hot day. The cherry cider was also delicious. We'll definitely be back soon. read more

Wonderful ciders, we tried the sweet flight and loved it! There are tons of options to sample and all are very well detailed on the menu. The interior space is cozy yet industrial with lots of seating for big groups. This is a new little gem in north loop that is the perfect spot for a chilly fall day. read more

Number Twelve Cider - Sweet flight! $12 - Breweries Near Me - Minneapolis, Minnesota

amazing ciders, plenty of activities like darts, bags, board games and a Photo Booth! As far as food goes they have a little pizza truck outside and some awesome bbq next door! Definitely worth checking out especially if you go to a twins game! read more

This is the first cidery I've visited in Minneapolis outside of Sociable. Wow! Right around the corner from Fulton, Insight and Modist. Tucked away in a warehouse. Super cute updated interior with both bars and booth seating and also some cushier couches. The bartender was super knowledgeable and gave us 2 samples on top of our flights, and explained the back story of the ciders. Every cider is really unique - not the watered down different kind of apple junk that's too sweet at most cideries - try the maple cider and also the black currant - really unique. They also have their own pizza truck outside which is awesome. We got one "the Turk" with a melty egg on top which was garlicky and delicious. Prices are super affordable too - we paid about $50 for 2 pizzas and 2 flights with four samples each, plus the 2 free bonus samples we got. read more

Number Twelve Cider - Main bar area - Breweries Near Me - Minneapolis, Minnesota

I'm relatively new to Minneapolis, and the one thing I really missed about Arizona was my favorite cider place (Cider Corps, if you're ever in Mesa!). Well Number 12 Cider is just as good! The selection is excellent, and the quality is great on all the ciders I've tried. Even if you think you're not a cider fan, give this place a shot and it will change your mind. I just had a barrel aged cider that was excellent. Ample indoor seating and the atmosphere is really hip and fun. read more

Great cider selections as well as good game options to hang out with friends! Or just a good environment as well to hang out.

#12 Cider is such a fun new space! There is a cute little lounge upstairs with couches. We got the cheese pizza with burrata from the truck outside and tried the cider flight. It was all excellent. read more

Cool space downtown. Tried 7 different ciders and only one was good. I've been to Thor's Cider in Stillwater and this does not even compare. They do have pizza outside though that looked decent. Probably won't be back. read more

My team of award-winning cross stitchers were lucky enough to celebrate our world wide victory at Number 12. Colin was very helpful and flexible and made booking the space a breeze. Their social media lady (I'm sorry your name escapes me) put together a Facebook post in our honor. We had a few people respond to their post and they stopped by and seemed interested in our cross stitching story. The pizza truck had excellent food and the ciders were all very good. That you again for allowing us to use your space. Can't recommend enough, especially for smaller events! read more

Superb spot for Twins pregame! Terrific Pizza and cider selection. Put an egg on it! On a hot day it was an amazing AC oasis...

Nice atmosphere. The ciders aren't bad but they are also not the most memorable for me. Their fresher pressed apple juice is really good though. They have board games or bring your own. Great place to hangout with friends. read more

Ordered 2 cider flights, Flo-rider was the favorite of our group. Great atmosphere, fun evening of drink and games, cozy place. Ordered in food from the BBQ place next door. Can't wait to visit again. Only complaint was that they closed at 9pm would have liked to hang out longer! read more

We love this place!! We discovered it hanging out at Inbound - one of our group is allergic to malt (it sucks) and can only have 1 beer, so we did a Google and found #12 across the street. We split both flights, because we had to try all the ciders. Everything was delicious - my favorite is Siren, whenever we're in the area now I try and grab a crowler. Hubby really likes Noleau, but that's seasonal and is currently unavailable. I may have started this review in the fall... Anywho, we've been back multiple times, and always leave with a crowler or 4. The little pizza place is delicious as well. Light and yummy pizzas that are fantastic with the cider. I love the atmosphere of the room too - very fun patterns and decorations but still streamlined and simple. I want to decorate my house the same way... But yes! Go here, get to-go orders until everything is open again, and try all the things. read more

An awesome new addition to the North Loop. It has the chill vibe of a coffee shop that invites you to sit down and stay for a while, but with cider that absolutely knocks it out of the park. It's a wonderful addition to the suite of breweries in the neighborhood read more

IMHO - the best cidery in the twin cities....I prefer sweet ciders and they have several to choose from (the sweet flight is a great option but they also have a dry flight). Lovely space, open, airy, large patio and great covid prevention measures. Patio is great for the summer and the inside is cozy in the winter. And they rotate cider slushy flavors in the summer - so refreshing on the patio! Love that the ciders are gluten free and that the pizza truck outside (Little Tomato) has a gluten free crust option! They also rotate through a few seasonal ciders every so often. read more

What a great place to try exciting ciders and enjoy pizza from the food truck outside! Number twelve is a great addition to north loop! The bartender Alex helped me decide on the dry flight, and the "goat" pizza from the permanent food truck just outside the front door. FWI: The upstairs has the best lounge, which is filled with the most comfortable couches, and chairs. I will defiantly make this my weekend go-to spot! read more

I'm not really a huge fan of cider, but this place is slowly converting me. This cider house is a real hidden gem of Minneapolis and is worth a trip if you even remotely enjoy cider. Of the ciders I recommend the "Courtship." Beyond the drinks, the brick oven style pizzas are very good as well. I highly recccomend the "Steve." The staff is warm and friendly.. Alex our server was particularly nice. read more

We went here about a year ago and it was such a positive experience I still remember it well. The atmosphere is modern and fun and at the time they had board games that we could take back to our table and play. I got the sweet cider flight and my husband ordered the dry cider flight-- they were both good, so it's really a matter of personal preference which was better. read more

Super cute new place in the north loop. Down the street from Target Field and a ton of different ciders, ranging from dry to sweet. Awesome staff and good vibes! read more

Best cider place in Minneapolis!! The cider there will make you never want to have any other cider. Bartender Alex is always kind and friendly. Look forward to seeing him there when we come!! A must visit. Especially when Twins games start up in the spring. read more

Great place, beautiful atmosphere! Spacious with lots of cozy furniture. I loved the ciders I tried. Wait staff was very friendly! Little tomato food truck outside if you get hungry. read more

It's been amazing over the last few years to see the cider scene in Minneapolis really take off, and Number Twelve has been at the head of the pack. Their founders are down-to-earth people who are always willing to chat about cider, making cider, drinking cider...yeah, they like cider, and it shows. Their taproom is gorgeous and welcoming and you'll often find the founders behind the bar pouring. An excellent addition to the local taproom scene. read more

Really cool place! Great Cider! Truthfully I never new cider could be this complex and enjoyable. Loved the Black Market Cider. The pizza is very tasty as well. My bartender Alex was very knowledgeable and friendly. Thanks for an awesome experience. I'll be back again. read more

Gorgeous place, great cider and delicious pizza! I highly recommend this place for date night or girls night with a group of friends.

Being a gluten free person this is now my favorite place. Plenty of options to drink. Beautiful decor, and very friendly workers!!

The cider and food is amazing will definitely be coming back! Highly recommend! They have a high range of cider flavors, and the decor is modern and nice! read more
