Citizen Cider is Vermont's most acclaimed hard cider producer — a Burlington taproom producing outstanding Vermont apple ciders that have helped establish hard cider as a respected American craft beverage. Vermont's extraordinary apple orchards and its craft beverage culture create the ideal conditions for a cider producer committed to celebrating Vermont's agricultural heritage through the state's most traditional beverage tradition.
