Brick River Cider St. Louis

Bring on the ciders! I love a crisp cider. I tried out a flight to get a little taste of everything! The Foundation is great and I enjoyed the pumpkin ale. If I weren’t flying back home I definitely would have got some! It’s got amazing flavor! The honey crisp and strawberry lemonade were a bit too sweet for me, but I’m glad I gave them a shot! They also have a nice food selection on their menu. Didn’t partake but I would have tried the cauliflower if I had room!!! Try it out if you like cider! The logo is super cute— get a free sticker at the bar!

Really cute cider house, conveniently located close to the union train stop. Celiac friendly - almost all their menu is GF (including dedicated fryer)

Rarely do I sit after a meal and have to leave a review immediately. I’ve been gluten free for about three years and there are things I miss desperately, like a good waffle. They’re always so grainy and dense. Not here! This is legitimately the best waffle I’ve ever had. Not just gluten free, just the best. Period. The cider is amazing, servers are friendly and helpful, and the atmosphere is super chill. Emily, our server, could answer all our questions and was very knowledgeable. My wife had the fish and chips and the fish was also gluten free - the batter was perfectly crispy and a great fish to batter ratio. If I could give 10 stars I would.

The food here was excellent! All members of our party enjoyed ourselves. The food was fresh, hot, and packed full of flavor! I really enjoyed their commitment to serving those with gluten allergies. The ciders were delicious and the fact that they showed the sugar content in each made it easy to pick what you desired most. The atmosphere was beautiful. Since it was a nice day in June, the bat door was open and there was a nice breeze. The only complaint were the drivers revving their engines loudly while driving by Service was also exceptional. Our server was attentive and regularly checked to ensure we had what we wanted or needed. I absolutely recommend Brick River Cider!

Warm, friendly, customer-centered atmosphere serving FANTASTIC cider. So many flavors, varieties - Brick River has great offerings and aptly names and describes them in their menu. And the food! Wish I had taken photos of our order - it had several farm to table type options and I ordered the Orchard Grill Sandwich (oh my goodness the apples and Gouda pair really well with cider!). I called when we were a few minutes away and they had a table set and ready for us. Highly recommend!

The BEST gluten free fish and chips I’ve ever had. Ciders were great and service was very friendly.

The food was AMAZING!!! I haven't had chicken and waffles in over 5 years. I actually cried a little bit, and I have no shame. The waffle and chicken were crispy, and the syrup had a hint of cinnamon that was perfect! I haven't tried the cookies yet, but I am so excited to eat them. I didn't have room at the restaurant but took them to go! The SIZE of the cookies made me so happy, GF usually means tiny, and this restaurant does NOT have that standard. The cider selection was HUGE too!

Great brews... must get the flight to try several... loved the barrel #2

I came with my friends here the other day and we had a great time! We wanted to try the different ciders so we each got a flight of 4 ciders. I tried the Honey Crisp, Sweet Lou's, Homestead Peach, and Strawberry Lemonade ciders. My favorites were the Honey Crisp and Homestead Peach but the other two were good too. I wasn't too hungry so I just had fries which I thought were addicting! My friends seemed to enjoy their entrees. The inside and outside of the restaurant is great with seating in both areas. Our server was amazing, he was attentive, funny, and caring - we saw him bring an umbrella out for a couple sitting in the rain with their dog! Such great service and I found out they have a rewards system too which you can sign up for in person when you receive the check. Excited to add another place to my Yelp collection of places I like in STL!

I have Celiac Disease and I love gluten free cider. I also really like the cider style of Brick River Cider (especially cloudy home style). We decided to visit the physical location when we visited St. Louis. Unfortunately, I did not know that they don't allow dogs inside. We had our little chihuahua with us. We were told no dogs when we entered and I immediately went outside to sit on the open-air patio and let my boyfriend pick some ciders for a cider flight to drink outside. Unfortunately, when he asked what they had, the server just tacitly handed him a menu, not also telling him that he also had the option of including the many seasonal offerings up on the wall list. As a result, he did not pick the ciders that we wanted to try. I have to speak specifically about the rudeness of the server. I understand that dogs aren't allowed but there was not a reason to be rude. This was a special visit from out-of-town for my boyfriend and he ended up having a very negative experience. The server didn't engage with us whatsoever. When I went in later to buy some packs to take home, he was short with me. This isn't the level of service that I expect from a local craft business. We love your products and probably would have bought twice as much cider to go if you had been willing to speak to us about your ciders. Very disappointing.

A fantastic find not far from the soccer stadium! Went for lunch today. Wonderfully eclectic options on the menu, ranging from portobello sandwiches to pulled pork mac & cheese to a deviled egg platter (which can be served topped with pulled pork). I had the Texas flatbread - flatbread, bbq sauce, cheese, pulled pork and delightfully candied japaleno slices. They do their own pulled pork in house - lean and flavorful. Entrees and "shareables" around $15 and less And they also have a terrific selection of their own hard apple ciders - they offered us samples of three, all great! Clean and comfortable dining room, multiple tvs and board games, patio Dining, weekend brunch service, and friendly waitstaff A great find. We will be back to work our way down the menu. Ample street parking except on football game days, I imagine. Love it!!

We decided to check this place out because it was on the 2024 pub pass, not knowing what to expect. It blew us away! The food was delicious and the variety of ciders boggles the mind! Our server was nice and hard working, and the brick building created a cool and modern ambiance.

The cider from this little brewery is delicious! I first tried their cider at Busch Stadium and had to find their location. They offer lots of different kinds of cider flavors all are very good. They use locally sourced apples and they have a restaurant on site as well. The customer service is great which is a nice bonus. I have not tried the food yet but I did purchase two growlers worth of their cider. When these are empty, I will be back for a refill and try the food.

Super cool historic building at the end of Wash Ave near the soccer stadium. Small little patio and industrial lofty decor indoors. Huge cider menu, had a flight and a pumpkin spice drink with my husband. So delicious. They have sweet stuff and dry stuff, so every palate is covered. Also, they have a lot of gluten free options, which is nice. Bartender took such good care of us. Explained everything, remembered that we met her at a sampling earlier that week. Felt right at home! Absolutely will be back! Can't wait to try their brunch.

A nice place in downtown STL to try a variety of ciders. It has an industrial feel , but very welcoming. When we stopped in they have a special buy one flight get one free, a great deal. They offer a variety of ciders, apple, peach and blueberry. The apple was crisp and the peach was sweet. They do offer food items. There are board games available .

My friend made a reservation at Brick River Cider because there was a big group of us meeting to celebrate. I had never been here and was excited to try it because I have a gluten allergy and their website stated that everything on the menu could be made gluten free. I will start with the good. The building looked to be an old fire house, which I loved, and the decor was nice. The ciders were great! I had a flight. Their deep fryer and waffle maker are dedicated gluten free. Most of the food was good. I had the deviled eggs and chicken and waffles. The eggs and waffles were great but my chicken was overcooked and dry. My husband had the cider-brined wings and Brick River smash burger and he said they were good. Now for the bad. Our party arrived at different times and they did not accommodate our large group (that there was a reservation for). Our server, who never told us his name, was extremely rude to all of us. We are a nice group and we were never mean or rude to him so I don't know why he acted the way he did. I don't know if he has never taken care of a group of people but if he couldn't handle it, he should have asked for help. We also tried to get him to split the orders as we were ordering and he said we would just do it at the end. However, he messed up the bill and tried to blame us. There were several other things that happened and my shock at his disrespectfulness made me forget to take pictures of the rest of our food. The poor service is the reason for the 3 star review. I almost did 2 stars because, to me, service is everything. Based on the service, I don't know if I will go back.

We live in the area and are trying to make more of an effort to eat at local spots. We needed a date night and wanted a brewery feel, so we ended up here. We came in on a Sunday night and it was pretty dead. Maybe 2-3 groups. They had one guy working the bar and serving but it was fine since they weren't busy. We sat at the bar and got fantastic service all night including great conversation. It's really cool to see straight back into their production room. We got two flights so we're able to try almost everything on the menu - we were impressed. There's definitely two that we loved, but there's something for everyone: sweet, dry, tart, fruity, floral. They do a great job of having many different options. The food wasn't super fancy but it was fantastic. Fries, chicken sandwich, brisket Mac. We weren't unhappy with any of it, it was all great. We thought for sure we would have leftovers but it was so good we couldn't stop eating it haha! Great experience for us, we will definitely be back.

Stopped by to celebrate Downtown STL Restaurant Week. The unique addition for the week is $3.00 single and $5.00 double Smash Burgers! Absolutely fantastic! A side of fries is a must. This meal paired well with a cider. I enjoyed the Cornerstone and sipped on the Mission Mango which was a different approach, the mango with chiles. I must say it is a good spin to the cider. It is always a nice atmosphere eating in a former engine house!

Great drinks good food and a really cool atmosphere both inside and out! Rooftop is always crowded

I had a lovely evening at Brick River Cider during their annual Ciderfest. I enjoyed a flight of 4 ciders and selected the Homestead, Homestead peach, Honeycrisp apple, and Hopricot (a brand new cider option!). The Homestead peach was easily my favorite. It was sweet, crisp, and perfectly peachy. We enjoyed some live music for Ciderfest and sat outside on the patio. The patio had a really fun table soccer game to enjoy and the cidery garage door was open, so we could easily enjoy the live music playing inside. We did attempt to order several food dishes, but they were out of many food options after the busy day of Ciderfest. We ended up getting French fries which were not good at all. They were incredibly soggy and weren't salted. We also tried the champignon flatbread, substituted with tomatoes instead of mushrooms because they were all out. The flatbread was also disappointing. I'm giving a 4 star review because of the lovely atmosphere and delicious cider flight I got at Brick River. However, I probably would not order food if I went again!

Easy parking! We decided to go visit some of the places on our beer passport today and this was one of the stops. Forgot to take any pictures as we were just enjoying the ciders and their outdoor street seating. Had a lot of different varieties of ciders and I learned that most of them are based on their Foundation Cider. Very nice inside with a good food menu and they even have a Sunday Brunch! Will be coming back for some food. Really enjoyed the ciders and the building.

I love coming here! Their ciders are so good and I love how they have a BOGO during happy hour! This is an easy way to get 2 flights and try all of the ciders they have on tap. Also, on this last visit, I tried their macaroni and cheese which was excellent! I wish I took a photo, but I was too hungry and I ate it all. We also tried fries and some other apps. And overall, the group I was with was very happy with their drinks and snacks. I like how they have added some board games to their shelves so that you can just hang out and play some games which enjoying a night out.

Definitely one of my usual watering holes! When I want to get away from the beer, a delicious cider from here hits the spot! All the ciders (except one) is made right in house. Chris the manager is always there and is super cool. I always get the Cobb Salad with the chicken served hot on the side. Chris was already putting my order in when he saw me . Pretty slow at the time so they accommodated me with tv selections. Started to pick up as I was leaving. Great spot for food, and ciders!

I really wanted to love the cider at Brick River because it's the only specifically cider place in STL. I am super excited that it exists. That said, all the ciders have a taste to them that I'm not a big fan of - I can't put my finger on exactly what it is, maybe it's the tartness. Not that they are bad by any means - they are quality ciders nonetheless. Sweet Lou is my favorite. The space is nice, but small. There is an outdoor area now too. Service has always been good. Disclaimer is that I haven't tried the food (yet) but it smells pretty good in there!

Stopped by here with some friends and absolutely loved it! I'm gluten free but the three I was with were not. All of our food was amazing and it was clean & a good vibe with the City game a few blocks away. Highly recommend for GF- they can make anything on the menu GF!!

Food was pretty good, american food. had a great time with the service. I ordered the fried chicken sandwich, a small salad, and the spinach dip. The food was immaculate!

Brick River Cider is the largest local cider brewery at St Louis. A friend and I visited during their Spring Forward event. We are thrilled they offered cheese / cider pairing and macarons/ cider pairing on top of the usual flights. In addition, live music, tours and trivia are ongoing throughout the day. Free street parking is available at the front of the building. Upon our visit, we ordered our selections at the bar. The bartender was patient in explaining all the menu items. Our favorite cider we have tried is the peach flavored one. We also enjoyed the cider brined chicken wings as well. One down side to Brick River Cider is that it gets really dead after 6pm. I felt it's preferable to come in the afternoon rather than the evenings.

We loved the vibe in this darling cidery! We stopped in on a Sunday night, and it was pretty quiet. The bartender/server was attentive and so nice. We had several burgers among the group, and they were all hot and fresh off the griddle. I always appreciate a hand formed patty! My husband loved the Mac and cheese. The flavors were mellow and homey, and the pulled pork leveled the dish up to make it substantial enough for a full meal! The only disappointment was the roasted Brussels sprouts. They were more steamed than crispy/fried. The flavor was just okay. Oh - and the ciders!!! Fantastic. Everything we tried was flavorful, crisp, and never too sweet.

The service here was excellent. The bartender knew a lot about the different ciders and made some great recommendations. I got a flight and every single one was delicious! I also loved the environment. Inside, there was a live band playing for an event, so we sat outside and there were plenty of seats. It kind of has that European vibe where the tables are on the sidewalk and I loved it. The food was okay but I enjoyed the cider more. I would definitely recommend checking this place out!!

We visited on a Saturday after a matinee performance at the Fox, and found street parking less than a block away. We came for the cider, and each had a flight. But the surprise was how good the food was, gluten free for Therese H. Chicken, fries, waffles, deviled eggs, all delicious. I suppose taste in cider is a personal thing, but I'll add that I found the Sweet Lou to be the best of the day, worthy of a growler to take home. Great service, great food, great cider. Thanks, BRC!

Place all food orders at the bar then find a table. They will give you a number and bring it out to you. I tried the new Hopricot India Pale Cider. I did not really care for the taste of it....it was definitely more ale tasting than cider. I tried my boyfriend's Autumn Spice cider and it was really good. I had the Orchard Grilled Sandwich with a side of Brussel sprouts. I think the sandwich could have had more apple butter and Gouda cheese. They have a "cocktail of the month" and also flights. They have board games available if you have a group of people and want to play. Also there is lots of seating upstairs, so don't be fooled if it looks crowded downstairs. There is a second bathroom upstairs if the downstairs ones have lines.

It was a fairly slow Friday night. I was surprised to see most of the tables were open. Our waitress came over right away and was VERY accommodating and engaging with our 4-year old son which is always appreciated. We ordered a cider for me, my wife was unsure if she wanted one or not and the server brought out several shot glasses for her to try. The turnaround out of the kitchen was really slow. Which was a bummer since we were hungry. The spinach dip appetizer probably took 15+ minutes. It was well over 45 minute for the dinner order to arrive, 2 different flatbreads, a grilled cheese for my son, and a burger with Brussels sprouts for me. The first to arrive was the grilled cheese and fries, which looked good The mushroom flatbread was next and immediately we identified it was way over-cooked. The top was very dark and the crust was black. The bbq flatbread was next and similarly overcooked. Burger was fine. The brussels were a bit mushy and oily, but flavor was alright. All in all, a negative experience. Sorry BRCC. UPDATE! Spoke to the server on the way out and she informed us (with apologies) that the cook working in the kitchen was having a very bad night. So I'm going to chalk this up as a one-off. Will give them another shot in the future.

Nice small place with attentive service with both individual ciders and flights. In a brickworks setting common to modern breweries. Several pub food options like burgers, sandwiches, and flatbreads. For soft drinks; you get it by the can.

First time in town and wanted ciders. Great selection of ciders and food. Many GF and V options. I decided to do a salad with add grilled chicken. Portion size is generous. Sampled many ciders. Ordered Sweet Lou's. Homestead peach was a close second. Chris gave us a tour and explanation of the cider process. The historic fire house location is cool. Casual vibe with table games while you wait for food. The wait was not long at all. Going back for brunch and bottomless mimosas. Prices were great and food quality was great.

Brick River Cider Company is the perfect place for anyone looking to drink a well-balanced cider. The friendly staff and laid-back atmosphere makes it easy to sit back and enjoy a couple of pints or even a flight of their locally made ciders. If you are looking to drink fantastic ciders definitely worth checking Brock River out! There is also a great food menu with a variety of options

As someone that is restricted to gluten free options due to allergies I have to say this is a strong go-to for foods normally off limits. This is not my first or my last trip here. The industrial setting is very much a modern day brewery. No wait, several screens for sports, quick and accurate service with a smile, good food, and all of their ciders are gluten free (I believe) with a variety of flavors. A past favorite is gluten free chicken and waffles! They also offer all of their burgers, some pasta and flatbreads, wings and dessert for others with dietary restrictions. They are reasonably priced, no frills, and tasty! The only thing I'd change is soft drinks on tap as they only offer cans or have thus far.

Great local restaurant with a rotating selection of ciders. Big fan of the Homestead. Came for a date night, and enjoyed the food and attentive service. Shootout for the Orchard Grill Sandwich.

Excellent cider, especially love the ranking system from dry to sweet. Great food and service!

We went to Brick River because our friend has celiac disease. And they offer a large gluten free menu. Our server was very dismissive when she was asking about how they keep their food and prep areas GF. My friend ordered what was supposed to be a GF flat bread and as we were eating it we asked our server if it was GF and he said it definitely wasn't. He didn't seem overly concerned and didn't offer to do anything to make the situation better. And when we asked for boxes and checks he made a remark to my husband under his breath. We will be contacting the restaurant in the morning and speaking to management.

The Food here was so fresh and tasty ...get the deviled eggs..(gone before pix) the grilled cheese with apples,apple butter and guoda was sooooo good. The ciders are crisp and delicious. Service was friendly and non intrusive. Will be back.

Friendly staff! Tasty ciders! Cool place to hang out! A nice place to finish an evening of St Louis bar-hopping.

This place was awesome! Ciders were so good!! Loved the honey crisp apple. Bartender/servers were kind & courteous. Got the brisket deviled eggs and the spinach artichoke dip to snack on, both were just ok, the ciders are definitely the star of the show here

Came here on a saturday afternoon prior to a concert and it was pretty slow, not too many other people there. We sat ourselves and it wasn't long before our waiter came over to help us. I'm not much of a cider drinker and was actually hoping they had drinks other than ciders but unfortunately the choices were cider or local craft beers. Our waiter described the different ciders to us and I opted to get the Cornerstone which he said had a similar taste to a nice semi dry white wine. I love my dry wine so this was the one for me. It was a very easy cider to sip on and I enjoyed it a lot. They don't have a huge food menu but from what I understood, what they do serve is delicious. The choices range from deviled eggs, flatbreads, wings, salads, burgers and a few other items. Once again I went with the recommendation of our waiter and ordered the pulled pork sandwich and traded out fries for the brussel sprouts. Considering there were hardly any people there it took a good long while for our food to come out and maybe 15 minutes had passed and the waiter came back out to let us know that unfortunately they were out of the brussel sprouts and so I ended up getting the fries instead. It wasn't more than 5 minutes and our food came out and I'll just say for this not being a bbq place that pulled pork was some of the best that I have ever had in my entire life. It was smoky, peppery and delicious. The fries were actually not bad either. They were crispy an had a nice seasoning on them. My sister got the portabella sandwich and she was happy with her meal as well. This place has a really chill vibe with all the live plants and the other decor. It was a pretty cool little spot and I would definitely recommend coming here if you are ever in the area and you love a good cider. We walked from our hotel but it looked like there was some street parking and possibly a lot around back but I'd check that out before driving there.

While in town for a concert with some buddies, we were looking for something nice but not too fancy; Somewhere to get some food, watch the game, and get a drink. Fortunately, Brick River Cider was a block away from our AirbnB. Upon arriving a bit after noon on Sunday, place was packed and luckily there were 3 spots available at the bar. We cozied up to the bar and were immediately greeted. The restaurant was lively and pretty much every seat in the place was taken. That being said, the inside has plenty of space so it didn't seem crowded at all. Brunch was being served but they also offered their normal menu during that time, which was nice as I didn't feel like eating brunch. The main menu offers a wide variety of flavors including Mac and Cheese with Pork BBQ, sandwiches and much more. The food was delicious, and the service was outstanding. Black River Cider is doing it right.

I really enjoy Brick River ciders. They have a fun selection of flavors and types to be inclusive for those with a sweet tooth and those who like drier and sour cider profiles. I also love that they have growlers that you can fill and refill for at home enjoyment. I am able to taste test a few options to make sure I like the one I purchase. They do have a food menu and ample i door seating, I just haven't tried any of it yet for myself.

Cute place with great staff. We all got a flight of cider. Great deal and you get to try 4 different ciders if you want. The peach was my favorite. We also ordered the spinach dip for the table and it was amazing. Some people ordered wings which they loved and I had the smash burger which was good. The sauce that they put on it was the best part. Overall great experience, and will go back!

So I went here on the suggestion of a coworker for dinner. Of course you have to do as the Romans do when in Rome, so I ordered the cider 5 pc flight. Of the 5 options, the Homestead and Saint Lou were my favorites. The Homestead is unfiltered and smooth, Saint Lou is their sweetest option but it's not overly sweet. Everything they make is pretty balanced. We ordered apps: sweet corn hush puppies with pickled jalapeños, cider chicken wings with red hot riplet seasoning, garlic parmesan fries and the Ozark Forest flatbread. All were yummy, but the wings were my favorite. They're sweet and spicy just like me. For my entree I had the adult grilled cheese sandwich, brie, fontina and apple with bacon. It was really good, I ate the entire sandwich! I'd definitely come back. Food service was a little slow but our waitress was very friendly. My coworkers ordered the fish and chips, pulled pork mac n cheese, and french onion chicken sandwich. Everyone seemed pleased with their selections so I think this can go on the regular rotation. Check it out if you're in the neighborhood!

We really enjoyed our time at Brick River. The inside is smaller than other brewery-type places, but we did not find it to be cramped or overcrowded on a Sunday afternoon. There are a couple of TVs to catch a game. The quality of the food was a pleasant surprise - it was so good! The ciders were great too - we tried four in total and had no complaints on any of them! A couple of them were sweeter than my preference, but the descriptions are accurate and listed right on the menu, so you know exactly what to expect!

The cider alone here gets me to score 5 starts as its the only beer variety I really do like period. All 4 traditional house ciders and even the 5th new add on flavor are rock on awesome! I suggest a 4 pour flight to go with every entree you get here! I also suggest my go-to entree, citrus chicken baby! 100X delicious and nutritious. Simple and consistent. Good portions and prepared just right. Cobb salad, its not only the most symmetrical salad in design you will ever see but its also likely to be one of the most tasty you ever have as well. Fish stew, new to the menu and so worth getting now that the cold is here! Its not too fishy tasting at all so even the picky would like this one I feel. Russ is the man here! I have been able to go see the back fermentation tanks up close and get the 411 of cider science and its fascinating stuff, at least to me. How much work goes into making those flights taste so good! Oh and they have all you can eat wing Wednesday's! I'll be back for that for sure! Its like $13 is all.

Love the ciders! The food is good - a pretty good amount of vegetarian options which is always require for me!

Awesome place! The cider is amazing. The Sweet Lou's is so unique; it's a must try. You really can't go wrong with the large cider selection. The food was very tasty. Every item can be made gluten free with no upcharge! Great venue. I'd you like ciders and/or are gluten free, go check them out!

I was in town for a conference, and our group held a get together here. This place was honestly the highlight of the conference for me. Everyone was super friendly and accommodating and went above and beyond the entire night. The drinks were great. I normally don't like ciders cause they're typically pretty sweet, but they had a great dry cider and another on a drier side. They also had a good pale ale. The food was also excellent. I was able to try their sandwiches, mac & cheese, three different kinds of pizza, tiramisu, etc and everything was fresh and delicious. Really cannot recommend this place enough.

Sadly service is still not very good and was very slow. I was hoping it would have improved since this place first opened. It took at least 20 mins before we were even asked our drink order. Took even longer for our waitress to take our orders. In fact service was so slow that we had to make sure to order as fast as we could because we were afraid the waitress would take too long to come back again. Food was delicious! I ordered the wings again, they were soo good the first time. Sadly though, we ordered a second drink and it took forever to come. Didn't come till we were done eating. The space is awesome and again the food is delicious, I just really wish they would get the service in order. it was not very busy when we went, i can't imagine how slow it would have been if it was crowded in there.

A good cider company is worth every penny. They have several verities and levels of sweetness so you not forced into something super dry and/or sweet you can get what you prefer. They have a nice flight you can buy so you can try and find your favorite. We recent went to the reopening after they shutdown and tried the peach for the first time and it's really really good. They have some food (very limited menu due to covid) but the top tip for the day is to go cattycorner across the street and get some of the banging awesome wings over there. Makes a perfect pairing.

Everything on the menu except biscuits can be made gluten free. I enjoyed the rare treats of hummus and pita, and chicken and waffles!

With so many great craft breweries in the city, it was exciting to discover a local craft cidery. The location, just slightly west of downtown and slightly north of Union Station, is a convenient spot for out-of-town visitors to experience something refreshing and unique when STL. We had the chance to try all eight ciders across two flights - I enjoyed the Revival Rye as an imperial stout and whiskey fan, the Homestead Cider is sweet and delicious for all palate, and Cornerstone is definitely worth sampling. Besides great ciders, the food options also stand out - I greatly enjoyed the taste and light texture of my Ozark Forest Flatbread and the combination of melted brie and sourdough for the Normandy Grilled Cheese was also an absolutely delicious bite to sample. I appreciate having a new local option to bring those who'd enjoy a drink after a week at work, but don't have a taste for beer. Brick River Cider is definitely worth checking out, and I hope to return sometime soon.
