Summer in the Pacific Northwest is the very best thing. After so many gray and rainy days, the sun is out, the sky is blue, and the air is warm and welcoming. It’s time to get outside and enjoy it—preferably with a chilled can of cider nearby!
There are tons of activities for Portland locals to soak up some rays and make the most of this all-too-brief, bright season. A few of our favorites:

Since he joined the Portland Cider team as our second-ever cidermaker five years ago, Sam has become the glue that allows us to continue pumping out our cider creations. He thrives on taking care of the things that help the rest of the team do their jobs well, anticipating issues before they occur and preventing them so that the cider keeps flowing uninterrupted.
