SIX BYRD
CIDER CO
About us
We’re dedicated to making complex craft ciders from simple, natural ingredients.
We combine traditional wisdom with new technology and equipment to create different ciders that range from dry to semi-sweet. At Six Byrd, we work to elevate cider and demonstrate the versatility of our fine craft.Out of frustration to find a quality dry cider, Six Byrd Cider was created to bridge the gap between wine and beer. Arizonans now have a local cidery that creates the "not overly sweet" cider found today. Ranging from dry to semi-sweet, we offer a cider that will suit anyone's palate.
