Portland Cider Co.

The Portland Cider Co. has been around since 2012, made from 100 percent Northwest apples.

The company has created a new seasonal flavor, Concord Grape—essentially an adult version of your favorite childhood juice box. The flavor is available through April in 22-ounce bottles and in kegs.
