Cider Pressing + 2 Bazaar Tickets
ONLY 25 TICKETS AVAILABLE!
Join Heart of Ellsworth and Fogtown Brewing Co. for a cider-making demonstration as we select, mill & press apples gathered from local orchards and foraged from the Maine Coast. We'll taste fresh heritage cider apples, and discuss how their complex characteristics contribute to the cider-making process. You’ll learn some of the history of the classic varietals, with their intriguing bitterness, tannins, and mysterious aromatics! We’ll talk about the various yeast and other microbes involved in fermentation, practical tips for finding and selecting apples, pressing, fermenting, aging, and bottling. Finally, we'll transfer this golden elixir into select oak barrels to ferment and age for next year's bottling.
As the pressing demo winds down, head to the Fogtown bar, where Fogtown will open some bottles from their cellar so you can purchase their new releases by the glass! And enjoy their cider-apple wood-fired pizza special.
For $60 you can take home 500ml of our freshly-pressed cider in a swivel-top bottle to drink fresh or ferment at home! Plus, get two general admission tickets to the Cider & Cheese Bazaar on Saturday, November 9th.
