Bauman’s Cider Releases Cider in Cans and Repeats as Cidery of the Year at GLINTCAP and PICC

Awards continue to come in for Bauman’s Cider Co. as the Oregon cidermaker has repeated as Cidery of the Year at two prestigious cider events over the past few weeks. Bauman’s Cider has received this award at both, the Great Lakes International Cider & Perry Competition (GLINTCAP) as well as the Portland International Cider Cup (PICC). Collectively, its ciders were awarded 3 Best in Class medals, 6 Gold Medals, 19 Silver Medals, and 5 Bronze medals between the two competitions.

”I am incredibly proud of my team and what we have accomplished over the last two years,” said Christine Walter, owner of Bauman’s Cider, in a statement.  “We will continue to strive to innovate within the cider industry and make the best cider we can possibly make every day!

In addition, this week Bauman’s launched its first-ever canned ciders. The two releases, My Own Private Idaho 7 and Bauman’s Authentic will be available at local retailers, bars, and restaurants in Oregon and Washington this summer.

My Own Private Idaho 7 is a hopped cider made in collaboration with TopWire Hop Project and Crosby Hops. The cider won a Silver medal at both the GLINTCAP and PICC competitions. The second of their new canned ciders is the Bauman’s Authentic pub cider which Christine describes as “the most drinkable cider we’ve ever made.” Coming in at 5.5% ABV, this cider is made from fresh-pressed local apples and back-sweetened with just a splash of juice. Apple-forward, it’s nicely balanced with a subtle sweetness and a dry finish.
