Name: Halloween Bash
Start: 2026-10-30
Location: Angry Orchard Cider House

Angry Orchard Cider House in Walden, New York, is the kind of place that makes you wonder why you ever settled for bland lager. Their most eye‑catching feature is a literal tree‑house where you can wander, taste, and pretend you’re on a secret mission (if you think you’re too sophisticated for cider, think again). The space isn’t just a gimmick; it’s built around the very orchard that supplies the apples, turning every sip into a lesson in terroir.

Seasonal ciders change with the weather, so the menu never gets stale – one week you’re sipping a crisp, lightly spiced autumn blend, the next you’re wrestling a robust, honey‑kissed winter version. Service is a cut above, thanks to the ever‑cheerful Darrin, Jay and Mac, whose knowledge is as refreshing as the drinks themselves. Food options range from pizza that holds its own against the acidity to donuts that are almost criminally good, ensuring no one leaves hungry. And if you fancy a hands‑on experience, the on‑site apple picking and press tours let you watch the magic happen from tree to tank, sealing the whole adventure with a taste of genuine craftsmanship.
