Reverend Nat's Hard Cider

It was very sad to learn that Reverend Nat's is closing, Nat and his team have continually provided outstanding and unusual hard ciders. If you are able to make it in before their closing I highly suggest pick up some of the Wooden Hellfire, it is an awesome experience. The cider community will undoubtedly feel a profound loss with the closure of Reverend Nat's. Their ciders have been more than just beverages; they've been a source of inspiration and a testament to what passionate craftsmanship can achieve. While it's a bittersweet farewell, we can take solace in the fact that we had the privilege of savoring their creations while they were in operation. Reverend Nat's, you will be missed. Thank you for the incredible beverages you've allowed us to sample over the years.

Reverend Nat's has been a local Portland staple for many years now. This established brand will have something wild and surprising. I love the NEW location! Whether dry or sweet, you are bound to find something you will enjoy. Plenty to eat at the food carts nearby, or if you're waiting for a table nearby. Order togo, and just chill with a yummy cider. But be careful, they are so good they go down fast. So glad to have this legendary Cidery accessible to the public once more. Thanks Rev! Hear more about this local business and others on a recent episode of The Brew Happy Show! Where podcasts are found.

beautiful ciders in both color and taste; I can’t say enough about the collaboration with Seven Bridges, Cider for My Family. I didn’t think I’ve ever tasted such a perfect intersection of these two adjacent beverages — cider and wine — not such a mellow but continuously interesting balance of spice, sweet and tart. We had trouble picking favorites in the flights; they’re all favorites. Thanks for a great evening, Nat & fam!

Great setup for a cider house. I liked the selection of ciders on tap. They seem to have one for every pallette. The space had a nice relaxing local hangout feel to it. As far as the ciders I liked the Grande Fresca and the Date night the best.

Cider nouveau with a nod to traditional flavors and apple and pear varieties. Attentive, knowledgeable and friendly staff. Rev Nat's will convert strict beer drinkers into cider lovers and cider lovers into Rev Nat's zealots. This is a haven for the GF crowd who are tired of the same old boring GF alcoholic drinks. Expect collaborative brewings, celebratory events, and easily recognizable (old world apothecary style simple black and white) branding with occasional one of a kind artwork on the labels. Brewer and owner Rev. Nat West is a madman on a mission, to win over your love for his cider. He's got mine. Cheers, Christopher at PortlandBeer.

I've been trying to get here since it opened, and this is my first trip. I met the Reverend at the Portland Cider Festival several years ago when his Revival and Hallelujah Hopricot we're just about ready to hit commercial production. The Hopricot was my first hopped cider and it blew my mind. I've had several since and it's really my favorite. I think the apricot balances the hops really well. If you are new to hard cider, you can have some wonderful, approachable ciders, and if you're a cider veteran, you will find many choices to excite you. The Tent Show ciders will blow your mind. The Two Year Aged Wooden Hellfire I'm drinking right now should probably be called a pommeau (like Calvados) except that he kept it just under liquor levels of alcohol. They are interesting and even weird. (A previous one had a leg of lamb soaking in it during fermentation, and there's a strawberry rhubarb pie one right now that involves whole pies, crust and all.) Come here, drink and spread the word.

When we were in Portland last summer we stumbled upon Nat's Sacrilege Sour Cherry cider and since then I've wanted to come back and try others. Tonight we tested the flight of all 12 ciders! Definitely would recommend! And if you need a snack the pretzel was delicious. (We also took the hint of visiting Sizzle Pie as well and this was fantastic too!) We'll be back for sure! Now we just need Nat's up in Canada...

Sorry to see this place go…. The taproom is next to Farmhouse Carts which makes grabbing something to eat with your cider a breeze. Had #11 with my khao soy from Thai Burger. And a #3 after my meal. Also grabbed a few to bring home. May return next week to get some of their limited selections before everything disappears.
