Since 2012
Our Story
Born from a passion for craft cider and Colorado’s apple-growing heritage.
Our roots
Planted in Firestone
Wild Cider was born from a passion for craft cider and Colorado’s apple-growing heritage. Founded in 2012 on 14 acres in Firestone, Wild Cider launched with big ambitions, planting over 1,100 apple trees to help revive Colorado’s orchard culture.
The team dove into crafting small-batch ciders with bold, unexpected flavors, earning a loyal following for something fresh, fun and a little outside the norm. Wild Cider quickly became a local favorite for those looking beyond the beer tap.
The next chapter
Rooted in the community
In May 2025, Wild Cider entered a new chapter under new local ownership, rooted in the community and eager to keep its welcoming spirit thriving.
The promise is clear: honor Wild Cider’s legacy, push boundaries with inventive small-batch ciders, host lively events, and serve the perfect pairing with every pint — wood-fired pizza, made to order.
