National Cider Month Kick-off with Schilling Cider

Ah, October. Playoff Baseball. Fresh hops. Lederhosen. And, thanks to Schilling Hard Cider, October is also National Cider Month. Established in 2019 by Schilling Cider, the Washington-based cider company with Sasquatch as a mascot, Peaks & Pints joins the National Cider Month celebration hosting several Schilling Cider events in October, including a kick-off party with Washington Wild Thursday, Oct. 3, at our craft beer and cider lodge in Tacoma’s Proctor District

Every year Schilling runs a campaign called “Keep It Wild” with Oregon Wild and Washington Wild that raises money to help keep wild spaces intact. Last year, this campaign raised $20,000 for these charities. Since Peaks & Pints has partnered with Washington Wild many times, we’re asking people to “round-up” their beverage and food bill at Peaks with the proceeds benefiting Washington Wild’s mission to protect wild lands and rivers in Washington state through advocacy, education and civic engagement.

In conjunction with this year’s celebration, Peaks & Pints will tap Schilling Cider’s new Berrymassive, which is part of their Excelsior imperial ciders. The semi-sweet, 8.4-percent ABV cider blends blueberries, blackberries, and fresh-pressed apples with a hint of bergamot.

Keep It Wild with Schilling Cider at Peaks & Pints Kick-off Party will run 5-8 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 3, with cool swag plus the Schilling Sasquatch will make an appearance.

Celebrate the artistry of cidermaking by joining the National Cider Month festivities in October. To find events and cider near you or learn more about National Cider Month, visit www.nationalcidermonth.com.
