Two Story Chimney Ciderworks (Craft Beer & Brewery in Gaithersburg MD)

Two Story Chimney Ciderworks in Gaithersburg, Maryland, is a masterclass in marrying tradition with a dash of daring. The team tends a sustainable orchard and even grafts century‑old apple trees, because why not let ancient fruit do the heavy lifting? Their small‑batch ciders are brewed the old‑fashioned way, then given a cheeky modern twist that makes each glass feel like a polite joke between a historian and a prankster.

The tasting room sits behind a rustic barn, complete with fire pits that keep the cold at bay and the conversation warm. Patrons can wander a generous outdoor area (perfect for families and noisy groups) while sampling flights that showcase wildly different flavor profiles, from crisp classics to the bafflingly delightful “Silly Yak” brews. Live music, trivia nights, and a menu of solid burgers and snacks turn a simple cider stop into a full‑scale social event. In short, it’s a place where quality, craftsmanship, and a good laugh share the same table.
