By: Amandha Silva Fallen leaves, warm and earthy colors, a soft, cold breeze...autumn offers a welcome change as well as some beloved bites and beverages. From apple harvests and cider sales, to fall cheese, pumpkins, and agritourism, this playlist offers fresh culinary inspiration as we enter a new season.  

Cider is delicious and it is historic. It is America’s first popular alcoholic beverage, made from apples brought across the Atlantic from England in colonial times. And over the past fifteen or so years it has been enjoying something of a revival.

This week on Beer Sessions, a celebration of Cider Week!

By: Zoe Denckla   This past weekend kicked off Cider Week New York, featuring 37 cider producers across the state. From October 2nd to 17th, there are tap room tastings, regional cider guides, and special cider-centered events. New York is the second largest apple producer in the country. So, cider has been, and always will be a big deal here. But recently, cider is starting to gain popularity on a national level.  

We sit down for a can of cider with Soham Bhatt, the co-founder of Artifact Cider Project.

Cider can be a complex drink category, but thankfully, Jimmy Carbone from Beer Sessions Radio has been reporting on the industry since 2011, and is here to guide you through it all.

Thank you for joining HRN this evening for our virtual book party and tasting in celebration of American Cider: A Modern Guide to a Historic Beverage.  To hear more from authors Dan Pucci and Craig Cavallo, listen to their recent interview on Beer Sessions Radio with Jimmy Carbone. 

This week on Beer Sessions Radio, Jimmy is focusing on all things cider.

In this hour, we are drinking our way through the Midwest starting with hard cider. Our guests introduce us to the multifaceted world of cider making.
