Finnriver Farm & Cidery Launches its Cider in Cans

Washington State’s award winning cidery, Finnriver Farm & Cidery, announces the launch of two premium craft ciders in 16 ounce cans. The two new offerings, Bloom and Blush, will make its debut in April 2025. This change from bottles to cans will extend Finnriver’s commitment to making craft cider from 100% organic fruit as accessible as possible.

The initial release features two of Finnriver’s most popular varieties: 

• Bloom (6.5% ABV) – Semi-dry, fruity and bright. Crisp, organic Washington apples meet sweet, organic blueberries, which give this sparkling cider a lovely purple hue. 
• Blush (6.5% ABV), Dry, crisp and light. Tart, organic Washington apples meet organic black currants in this beautiful, pink sparkling cider. 

“Washington State grows more than 85% of organic apples in the U.S., yet that’s rarely reflected in canned ciders.” says Amanda Oborne, Finnriver’s CEO, in a statement. “We saw a lack of premium craft ciders in cans in the market, and knew we could fill that niche. With an organic orchard and a cidermaking team that sources all organic, local and wildcrafted ingredients, sustainability is paramount to us,” continues Oborne. By putting our values-driven products in cans, we make them accessible to a much broader community of responsible, discerning drinkers.”

Finnriver Farm & CIdery will be hosting a launch party for its cider in cans at the cidery on Friday, April 25, 2025 from 5:00 – 7:00pm. To learn more about this release, visit Finnriver’s Facebook page.

Distribution will focus initially on premium grocery and specialty retailers in Washington, Oregon, Montana, Idaho, Northern California and Colorado, and will also be available direct to consumer at the farm on Washington’s Olympic Peninsula and via finnriver.com, as well as at 20+ regional farmers’ markets in the Seattle region. Both varieties will be available in 16 oz cans in 4-packs, 24 cans per case. Distribution partners include the Odom Corporation, including NW Beverage and Dickerson, as well as Point Blank Distribution, Fort George, George’s, West County and Crooked Stave.
