100% was not expecting such an amazing cidery in Benton, PA! We arrived right when they opened and…read morehad the place to ourselves for a short while. The cidery is a converted barn and is decorated super cute inside. There's plenty of seating both inside and outside with lots of heat lamps! Since the barn doors are open, even sitting inside you get to enjoy the fresh air. They offer so many cider flavors! I recommend the flight so you can try a little bit of everything and then go back for seconds on your favorite/s! It's hard to pick my favorite flavor but if I had to, I'd say either the ginger or blueberry! You also get a small bag of pretzels with your cider flight and they allow you to bring in your own snacks as well. Super friendly staff, delicious and unique cider flavors, cozy and cute seating arrangement..what's there not to love! Absolutely check this place out :)

Great place to visit! We went yesterday and enjoyed some cider flights. We had three in total…read morebetween three of us. They each come with a bag of pretzels. Also, due to the current PA guidelines you're required to buy half of a slice of pizza for $1, which was tasty. They're ciders are more on the dry side and most are very boozy, if you know what I mean. I prefer things to be more on the dry side than overly sweet. The women working were friendly and there was ample seating outside. We'd go back if/when in that area.

I enjoyed tasting different ciders that they make (dry, sweet, pumpkin, cherry). I really liked the pumpkin cider. They sell the cider in single serve bottles (8 oz.) and growlers (32 oz). I bought a bottle of the sweet cider. They also make & sell wines, however I did not taste those. Lots of outdoor & indoor seating.

Probably the coolest place around the Moscow Jefferson area…read more Basically a farm stand up front with some jams, jellies, shirts, pickles, cakes, cookies, etc you get it. Love the open deck with fire pit and covering so you can visit here in the cooler and even rainier times. They serve beer, cider, and wine, but the beer isn't brewed in house. It's fine though, they procure pretty tasty beer. All options you can get in flights to keep the variety pumping. Last time I was there I participated in music bingo which was fun. They bring in events like singers and other activities to keep the place lively. You can also eat at a small "shack" for a lack of better term that sells sandwiches, pretzels, popcorn, or inside the "brewery" where they have a cooler full of artisan cheese and sandwiches. Not bad, the shack has pretty decent hotdogs. Try to come often since there's really nothing like it around.

Iron Bound is consistently a good experience. Over the years this farm has evolved into a culinary…read moredestination with ingredients as local as it gets. The meats on the menu are from the farm! The uniqueness of the cider is the highlight of the meal that is already exceptional. It's also a place you can feel good about supporting. The mission of Iron Bound since its founding has been to be good stewards of the land and good humans all around. The energy here is as immaculate as the food. If you are coming from a distance pack a cooler with ice to take home the home grown meats. The breakfast sausage is our favorite!

They also have covered outside seating with a bar.

Prices aren't the best, but considering everything is made in-house, I'd say you're getting decent value. Houses about 25 people for seating comfortably. I'd suggest trying a flight (4 samples) of cider. Can't go wrong with anything but we went with the sweet cider flight. We ordered the pulled pork, choripan, soup, turkey pesto melt, and farmers salad, along with an immunity (ginger) cocktail. We liked the soup, melt and pulled pork, but would pass on the choripan and farmers salad, esp since all meals came with the same salad anyway. While I don't think you should go here just for the food, it's nice to grab some cider before heading off on a hike and enjoying the natural scenery.

Before ordering their dry hard cider, the person at the counter advised me to try a taste first because most people did not like it. Yes, it was dry and tangy but after ordering a full glass, it became so overwhelming that I had to dump half of it out. If anything, it tasted as if their dry cider had been removed from the fermentation process way too soon. My friend ordered a flight, which included a sweet chocolate cider that she loved, though too sweet for me. The peach was also sweet as well as the tangerine, and the beer she had ordered tasted as if a skunk had released itself in the mix. The food trucks, however, were great. And if you want to use the restroom, only portable toilets are available. Unimpressive on all levels save the lay of the land.

On Thursday we played some board/card games from the collection at the bar, which was made more fun by the fantastic playlist! Friday there was live music and the place was full, both of which were a lot of fun. We can't wait for another trip back and to try more of the delicious hard ciders!! 10/10, no notes!

The traditional honey mead had a beautiful, light honey flavor with a little alcoholic kick. I might not drink this straight, but I could think of many ways to blend that beautiful honey flavor into drinks. Then we tried the mead blended into fruit wine. I liked the raspberry blend but blueberry was my favorite. The very clear taste of the fruit was beautiful with the honey notes and you knew it wasn't just a juice drink..the alcohol was there as well. The ciders were a nice surprise taste wise. I'm not a big cider fan, but when I tasted the gold medal winning Strawberry and crisp apple cider it was a win for me. The single fruit choices of all these were selections were wonderful.... sometimes the blending of different fruits leaves to confused tastes for me. Our bartender was very nice and friendly and helpful. It also has a winery Torrey Ridge in the same facility.

We tried a few options (Baldwin, Prelude, and Bluegrass Russet) and honestly... none really stood out. For their flight being priced between $16-$30, we were expecting more complexity or at least a standout pour, but everything felt a bit underwhelming. If you're into very dry ciders, this might still be your vibe. But for us, it just didn't click and the price point made it feel like a bit of a miss.
