BRD members are both professional dancers and volunteers sharing the administrative duties of the nonprofit collective.

We have loved exploring the unique side of ciders with you all for the last 4 months. For one last interesting shebang to round out the year, we will be featuring a few of our favorite makers with 4 different red flesh ciders. These beauties are all made strictly from apples, with the gorgeous pink and red hues coming from their – you guessed it – red flesh. Full pours will be available, but the real beauty will be in the drool-worthy ombre flight.
