Finnriver Cider Dry Can Release Party
Finnriver Cider Dry Can Release Party
There’s a certain kind of dry that doesn’t mean absence, but intention — the kind that strips away the noise and leaves only the crisp, electric truth of the apple, humming like a clean note in spring air. Finnriver Farm & Cidery returns to Peaks & Pints with that exact energy, a year after their first canning debut, now rolling back into Basecamp Proctor with a fresh pour of purpose: the release of their new Dry cider in cans, sharp as orchard light and just as alive.
This one leans into the bones of the fruit — organic Granny Smith and Pink Lady apples from Washington locking arms with Golden Russet from Ashland, Oregon, the latter coaxed through fermentation with a Sauvignon Blanc yeast that whispers a little wine into the mix, then tucked away to rest, to deepen, to become something quietly compelling. The result is crisp, balanced, and refreshingly unsentimental — a cider that doesn’t shout, but absolutely lands.
We’ll have the new Dry cans stacked and ready, alongside Bloom and Blush cans returning like familiar friends who’ve learned a few new tricks, plus five Finnriver ciders flowing from the taps — a full orchard chorus, bright and layered and just a little wild around the edges.
It’s part celebration, part seasonal reset, part reminder that cider, when done right, is less a drink and more a conversation between land, time, and a well-made glass.
Finnriver Cider Dry Can Release Party, 5-8 p.m. Thursday, April 23, Peaks & Pints, 3816 N. 26th St., Tacoma, no cover
