What We Love About Tieton Cider Works
What Is Cider?
Perhaps one of the most important things to know about cider is that it’s not beer! While the two are packaged similarly, the only commonality between ciders and beer is fermentation. Unlike beer, which often has a hops base, cider’s base is apples! Cider apples are a distinctive variety that has a bitter, dry taste that’s not suitable for eating raw, cooking, or baking. Instead, this cultivar is used for making cider!
If you’re looking for breweries in Yakima, Washington, we’ve got you covered. Fun fact: Our area is responsible for more than 75 percent of the nation’s domestically grown hops!

Tieton Cider Works takes these bitter apples and bottles them into something delicious. From year-round offerings to limited releases, you can always count on a unique flavor profile on tap! The year-round ciders boast the perfect blend of sweet and dry, with flavors that range from bourbon barrel peach cider to cranberry cider.
The limited releases often reflect the spirit of the season. For example, sweet strawberry and lavender honey ciders are available in the warmer months. It’s the perfect drink to cool down after a day exploring during summer in Yakima!
