Summer Cider Tap Takeover at The Queens Kickshaw Starts June 23

Apart from the consistently delicious food, beer, coffee, and lovely surroundings, the folks at The Queens Kickshaw are also huge fans of artisanal cider. They love it so much that they’re holding a week-long cider tap takeover from Monday, June 23 through Sunday, June 29! Who says cider is just for Autumn?

Their tap list will include Aaron Burr, Annandale, Castañón, Christian Drouin, Domaine Dupont, Eve’s, Farnum Hill (special kegging of their Extra Dry), Slyboro, and Virtue. They’ll also feature a special preview of NYC’s first licensed urban cidery, Descendant Cider.

They are planning some cider dinners, too, on the evenings of Tuesday, June 24 and Wednesday, June 25. Here is a sneak peek at the menu ($55 includes cider/perry pairing):
