2 Towns Ciderhouse Celebrates Dual Wins at 2025 Great American Beer Festival
2 Towns Ciderhouse, a trailblazer in craft cider from Corvallis, Oregon, is toasting two prestigious medals from the 2025 Great American Beer Festival (GABF), the nation’s premier professional beer and cider competition. The cidery’s 14th Anniversary Cider, a small-batch release made from heirloom apples in a nod to traditional cidermaking, secured the Gold Medal in the No/Low-Tannin Cider category. Meanwhile, Huckleberry Cosmic Crisp®, a vibrant new addition to the Cosmic Crisp® Imperial lineup blending Northwest huckleberries with Washington’s Cosmic Crisp® apples, earned a Bronze Medal in the Fruited Cider category. These awards highlight 2 Towns’ mastery in crafting both classic and innovative ciders.
“We’re incredibly proud of these GABF medals, which reflect the heart and versatility of our craft,” said Aaron Sarnoff-Wood, co-founder and chief sales and marketing officer at 2 Towns Ciderhouse. “Our Anniversary Cider honors the timeless art of cidermaking, while Huckleberry Cosmic Crisp® showcases our passion for bold, creative flavors. These wins tell the story of who we are as a cidery.” The 2025 GABF, hosted by the Brewers Association, featured 8,315 entries from 1,555 breweries and cideries nationwide, judged by 250 industry experts who awarded 347 medals. As one of 29 Oregon medalists, 2 Towns reinforces the state’s dominance in craft fermentation.
