Yip Cider sits in Long Reach, New Brunswick, and manages to turn the simple act of sipping into a small celebration of the countryside. Their flagship River Valley Maple combines crisp, locally‑picked apples with a velvety maple finish that could make a seasoned cheese‑maker weep (the founders, who clearly love both apples and maple, decided to blend the two). The cider is drawn from the rolling hills of the “beautiful river” valley, so every draught tastes like a brisk walk through a forest after a light rain.
The Yip Taproom is a hub of unpretentious fun. One‑of‑a‑kind Pomodori pizzas arrive hot and topped with enough fresh tomato to convince you that pizza can be a side‑dish for cider. Live music drifts over a puppy‑friendly patio, and the lawn is littered with quirky outdoor games that tempt you to linger longer than you intended.
If you need a venue, Yip Cider has you covered: weddings beneath the stars, corporate retreats with cider tastings in a boardroom that looks out over a river, and an overall atmosphere that feels both polished and down‑to‑earth. High‑quality, distinctive ciders, a welcoming taproom, and a view that actually lives up to its reputation—this is one countryside experience you can drink straight through.
Yip Cider is praised for its great atmosphere, friendly staff, and unique features such as a dog-friendly patio, outdoor games area, and beautiful views. The tap room, selection of ciders, and pizza are also highly recommended.
