Toast Vermont's cider makers with sips that range from bone-dry and funky to lip-smacking sweet. Sample an array of apple nectars at Nectar's in Burlington while dancing to tunes from Seth Yacovone; learn the science of apple fermentation with Woodchuck Hard Cider maker Ben E. Calvi in Middlebury. You could treat yourself to a tasting tour of Citizen Cider, then drink rare brews from its cellar. Or strap into skates at Stowe Mountain Resort's Spruce Peak Pavilion Building for drinks over ice, courtesy of Stowe Cider. And these are just some of the goings-on during Vermont's fourth annual Cider Week!
