Hey friends,
I am sad to announce that this Sunday will be the last day Woodlore Cider is in business.
It is hard to fully encompass the gratitude I have for every single one of our customers and for the opportunity we were given to share our cider with you.
We wanted to create a place where people could feel welcome, loved, and where community was built over a pint of cider.
We made countless friends along the way during this journey and I loved having the privilege to get to know so many of our customers and to hear your stories.
Woodlore hosted birthdays, wedding showers, baby showers, and even marriage proposals. I can’t begin to share how humbling it felt to be a part of your life journey.
In regards to our cider, I don’t tend to be the type of person to overly talk up my work, but I think we did a damn good job with the product we crafted. Thank you for all of the love so many of you shared on the various review platforms and at various events. On Untappd, our lil’ cidery had some of the best-rated ciders in all of Minnesota. We finished this chapter with some “best cidery” awards, over 100 5-star reviews on Google, and gold and silver medals for our ciders from national competitions.
I wish our journey didn’t have to end now, Cami and I are so immensely grateful to all of you. Maybe you’ll hear more from Woodlore in the future, but for now this chapter is closing.
I will be working behind the bar all day today, Saturday, and Sunday. Come on by and let’s share a pint.
