Hey all. Quick update from your local cider makers. I (Ross) can no longer speak for all three of us, as we've no longer been spending 15 hours a day together. I've been in the Boston area doing sales for our Massachusetts "soft launch", while Tyler's on the South Shore, and Ben's rocking Maine. We officially launched in Boston a couple weeks ago, and you can now find Downeast Cider at the following restaurants and bars:
Cambridge Brewing Company, Cambridge
Five Horses Tavern, Somerville
The Muddy Charles, Cambridge
Temple Bar, Cambridge
Christopher's, Cambridge
Picco, South End
The Hill Tavern, Beacon Hill
The Kinsale, Gov't Center
Meadhall, Cambridge
The Independent, Somerville
Bukowski Tavern, Boston & Cambridge
The Asgard, Cambridge
The Publick House, Brookline
Deep Ellum, Allston
Sunset Grill, Allston
Lizzy's, Cambridge
James's Gate, Jamaica Plain
If you go to one of theses locations, and we're not on tap, that is because they have yet to finish the keg that we are replacing, or we're a rotating tap, and we'll be back on soon. Either way, as always, I encourage everyone to whine, moan, kick, and scream if we're not available, because that's the mature thing to do.
I have to wrap this up, because it's Saturday, and golf balls aren't going to ping-pong themselves back and forth across the greens, but I would like to thank everyone who came to support us at The Kinsale last week. I hope you had a good time and enjoyed the cider. We DO have more events planned, and I have a feeling that we're going to have to start giving away more and more free stuff to lure people in, so you have that going for you.
Just know this (friends who are asking for free swag all the time): we still don't make a dime, at least you guys have paying jobs. Yesterday, I went home for dinner, took my dad's leftover pasta home with me, reheated it for breakfast the next day, then, for lunch, cooked pasta I stole from my girlfriend and rolled it around in the faint traces of sauce I still had leftover from breakfast. So if you have faith in Downeast, and are looking to make a good investment, I like breakfast sandwiches, panini's of any kind, and pretty much anything from Anna's Taqueria...
