The eighth annual Oregon Cider Week begins today, June 20, once again bringing cider to the forefront for 11 days of events around the state. Hosted by the Northwest Cider Association, it’s a great time to learn more cider in general and Oregon’s industry which has been growing.

From Thursday, June 20th to June 30th, cidermakers and cider bars across Oregon will be hosting festivals, events, dinners and tastings. Wherever you travel, you’ll find Oregon’s independent and intriguing ciders on tap. Create your adventure with a new map of Oregon’s cidermakers. Whether you want to sip a little Bandon Rain on Oregon’s South Coast or sidle up for a cold one at Freewater Cider in Milton-Freewater, you can find an Oregon cider to slake your thirst.

Did you know almost two dozen cideries have opened in Oregon in the last two years? Our map makes it easy to find them all! Or host your own Oregon Cider Week at home. Oregon Cider Week presenter New Seasons Market will offer 20% off cider this Friday, June 21st through 23rd!

The calendar of events is posted here, and currently has a slew of events listed for plenty of ciderific opportunities. A number of events are taking place outside of the immediate Portland area as well, which is nice to see as it continues to spread throughout the state.
