Cider Fest rules. And I am not talking about regulations. I am talking about the fact that this Saturday's Hudson Valley Cider Festival at Barton Orchards in Poughquag is going to be awesome.  One of the best event of the summer.

There will be over 50 cideries, many of them local, giving out samples of their delicious, refreshing ciders.  If you are not yet familiar with hard cider, you will be amazed at how many different kinds there are.  Apple, pear, pineapple, ginger hibiscus, just to name a few.  Not sure what kind of cider you will like best?  This is a great way to taste them all and find out.  And even though cider is the star of the day, there is a lot more going on.  There will be live music all day, and delicious food will be available.

The Hudson Valley Cider festival is this Saturday, July 16, at Barton Orchards.  For tickets and more information, visit the America on Tap website.
