Scion Cider Bar (Craft Beer & Brewery in Salt Lake City UT)

Scion Cider Bar in Salt Lake City, Utah, is a sanctuary for anyone who thinks apples belong in a glass, not just a pie. With more than 225 craft ciders on offer, the place swings between cutting‑edge experiments and time‑honoured recipes, all sourced from tiny producers scattered across the globe. The award‑winning badge on the wall isn’t just for show; it backs up the fact that you can sip an orange‑spiced amber one minute and a dry, tannic perry the next, while the rotating menu guarantees that even regulars are forced to admit, “I didn’t see that coming.”

The ambience is deliberately low‑key, a calm backdrop that lets you focus on the flavors rather than the décor. When you’re ready to eat, the central‑9 focaccia and other high‑quality bites arrive like a well‑timed pit stop, and the staff will concoct a bespoke cider pairing based on whatever whim you’ve expressed (they actually listen). Adding a dash of theatricality, a cider duo belts out quirky drinking songs that sound half‑serious, half‑delightful, turning a simple tasting into a slightly absurd performance. All in all, Scion proves that craftsmanship and a pinch of cheek can coexist beautifully in a glass.
