Ponderosa Cider

Listen up my groovy friends, it’s almost that time of year again when the Ain’t Necessarily Dead Fest makes its return to Auburn Regional Park.

Ponderosa C***r wants to make sure you don’t look like a total square so we are teaming up with To Be Tie Dyed for a Make your own Tie Dye event this Saturday 4-7pm. Bring your own white shirt or you can purchase a Ponderosa C***r White T-shirt. To Be Tie Dyed will also have some of their vintage tie Dye collection for sale.

This week at Ponderosa!

Saturday we’re getting ready for Ain’t Necessarily Dead Fest with an afternoon of Tie Dye at Ponderosa from 4–7pm. Come make something appropriately colorful to wear to the fest, hang out, drink some c***r, and get yourself ready for one of Auburn’s best weekends of the year.

Friday night is Trivia Night at 6:30! We’re BYO food, which means this is your excuse to grab your favorite takeout on the way over. Pizza, tacos, Thai, burgers, whatever you’re craving - bring it with you, grab a c***r, and settle in for trivia.

And the rest of the week:

Thursday: Run Club / Thursday Night Hills at 6:15pm
Friday: Trivia at 6:30pm + BYO Food
Saturday: Tie Dye 4–7pm + Midtown Farmers Market 8am–1pm
Sunday: Swag Sunday - wear your Ponderosa gear and get $2 off draft c***r

See you this weekend at The Alley!

Where are my Southern Aspect fans? 🙌

Not sure if you all know this, but every batch of Southern Aspect is distinctly unique because of the way we make it.

We start with 100% West Coast apples that are freshly pressed and immediately transported cold to our facility, where the juice stays raw and unfiltered. From there, it’s pumped into our 2,000-gallon w**e fermenter for a slow, delicate fermentation.

That process gives Southern Aspect its truly dry finish while still keeping plenty of flavor and character.

Aromas of melon, citrus, and fresh apple lead into a crisp, complex c***r with a long apple finish.

Southern Aspect fits just about any occasion.

Now available seasonally, so grab a four-pack at out tasting room before it’s gone.

Edit: We have our winners!
Big things are happening again at Ponderosa C***r!

We just took delivery of a brand-new-to-us tank to help us keep up with demand and we thought we’d have a little fun with it.

Think you can guess its total capacity? Drop your best guess, in gallons, in the comments. Whoever guesses the exact number—or comes closest—wins a free c***r in our tasting room! 🍻

Want a chance at a second free c***r? Tell us which brewery this tank originally came from.

Hint: look at the number on the tank 🏎️

Let the guessing begin! 🏁
