Carriage House Ciders

Carriage House is a love story A love of traditional cider made with natural ingredients from mother nature. A love of Michigan and every one of its apple orchards and everyone in its community. A love of the flavor our cider brings out of good food. We celebrate each apple’s uniqueness, whether it’s a Hoople’s Antique Gold, Grime’s Golden, Dabinett, Foxwhelp—or any of the abundance of varieties we use to create a different, fuller flavor cider each with an expression all its own. Falling in love usually involves a leap of faith, a heap of daring, and a dash of crazy. We’re crazy enough to select and prepare every apple of the thousands that go into our ciders. To use wild yeast that's found on the skins of the apples, leaving nature in control. To use oak barrels for fermenting and aging to lend flavor and tannins to our cider. And crazy enough to restore and remake a 137-year-old carriage house into a cidery. We’re daring enough to bring European-style cider to American tables because we believe our customers are daring enough to try and embrace something unique. We take a leap of faith with every batch and bring only the most delightful, interesting ciders to our market.
