My fiancé and I are getting married here in October 2021, so we wanted to learn more about Blue Bee, the space, and the cider. Part of the tour takes place in a gorgeous little courtyard with apple trees and shaded tables where the guide tells you the history of the cidery. Then, you get to see where the cider is made in huge fermentation tanks and see where bottling takes place, learning about cider-making as you go. After, we tried 10 different ciders as part of the tour. We learned a lot and got to sample delicious new ciders. Would definitely recommend.

My adult so and I thoroughly enjoyed the tour & tasting. The young man who guided us was very knowledgeable about the history of cider, the building & the area, as well as, entire process of making cider. Educational & delicious!

Did the cidery tour and tasting and had a great time with my mom. The tour guide, who was also the owners father, was very informative and kind. We were given a wide range of cider during the tasting and stayed for an extra glass after the tour. I would definitely recommend this place to couples, family and friends!
