Downeast Cider House

"I just wanted to leave you with a *chefs kiss* review of your Guava Passion Fruit cider. Who ever created this, needs to be the president of your company since they are just mining GOLD for you. All your flavors are fantastic but THIS FLAVOR, unbelievable. Keep up the brewing and please return this flavor for next year's summer collection. Thank you"

"First, I'm surprised an operation as widely known as Downeast is running out of a place as small as this but, what an operation it is! The tasting room is set up in their production warehouse (where every can of their cider comes from) and seats ~40 people or so. It's definitely an industrial feel and due to the space only 1 tasting flight is allowed per person (with 4 samples per flight). The coolest part to me was the opportunity to try experimental flavors and provide feedback about them as well as flavors exclusive to the taproom. While I'm not normally a cider person they had non-cider "cider" options that were really delicious, especially the bomb pop and orange creamsicle flavors. And if you want more than just a flight there is a place across the street that has their beverages available in larger quantities/sizes. Definitely worth a stop in!"

"As a longtime fan of Downeast Cider, visiting their cidery was a dream come true! Although the indoor section only offered one flight, it turned out to be a delightful experience. Sampling their diverse flavors while sitting by stacks of cans created an incredible atmosphere. The real highlight was their outdoor tasting area by the water. Watching the sunset while sipping cider in comfy chairs was simply magical. Don't miss out on the overboard option—it's now my favorite! Crossing the river for this experience was definitely worth it!!!"

"Been a fan of Downeast for a long time and finally got to visit. Great experience! Staff was super nice, the vibe is cool, and the cider flight was excellent! First time in East Boston too, and really liked the neighborhood. Check out their website before you go - it’s not like some tap room experiences, but very cool if you know what you’re going for."

"A hidden gem. Little tough to drive down the streets. But worth the drive. Looking into taking the water taxi boat there next time. Really be nice if they had a slushy machine to put the drinks in to be frozen."
