Buried Barrel Hard Cider

Buried Barrel Hard Cider comes from apples on the Pankow Farm in Castile, NY. Family & Pet-Friendly. Farms from those times were diverse and self-sufficient.

The Story of Buried Barrel Hard Cider

A few short generations ago, most of the American population lived on the farm. People worked hard every day and every season from sunup to sundown. Food was raised on the farm from the livestock, vegetable gardens and fruit trees. With all of that hard work, there was also special times for celebrations with family, friends and neighbors. Special meals requi

red drawing on reserved stored foods and drinks. Most farms had abundant apple trees. Apples from harvest were preserved and made into apple sauce and canned for later use. Some apples also made their way into cider and this is the inspiration for the Buried Barrel Brand. Hard work required a hard drink for special celebrations. Hard Cider was the homemade drink. In late fall, apples were crushed and placed into a barrel with yeast and added sugar and flavorings. These barrels were sealed and buried in the ground to ferment and age. The science was not exact. Farmers learned by doing and experience. They didn’t go to the internet for clues or the state authorities for permits. They put themselves and faith into the process and got out what they put in. Buried Barrel Hard Cider comes exclusively from apples on the Pankow Farm in Castile, NY. For many generations this dairy farm has run a U-Pick orchard along Glen Iris Rd at the entrance to Letchworth State Park. They have buried and unburied many barrels of hard cider for family celebrations. Today’s cider is a toast to their heritage and a way to keep this special land and orchard in production for future generations. Cheers!

Happy Birthday to Senator George Borrello — the kind of guy who fights for small businesses, stands up for agriculture, says “not in our backyard” to covering our farmland in solar fields, loves Star Wars, and never turns down a good hard cider 🍎

We’re thankful for everything you do to support not only us, but so many small businesses and rural communities across New York. Your true intentions, love for the people you represent, and dedication to preserving what makes our area special do not go unnoticed.

From all of us at Buried Barrel Hard Cider, we hope your birthday is filled with good cider, great company, and maybe a lightsaber or two. May the Force be with you today and always! 🎉🥂🍎

Memorial Day is a day to remember and honor the brave men and women who gave their lives serving our country. 🇺🇸

Their sacrifice gave us the freedoms we enjoy every day, and this weekend we pause to reflect with gratitude and remembrance.

As we gather with family and friends this Memorial Day we remember those who never made it home. We will never forget their courage, sacrifice, and service.

Thank you to all who have served, and especially to those who gave everything for our freedom. ❤️🤍💙
