Hood River’s First Cider & Distillery! Fox-Tail Cider & Distillery wants you to enjoy the scenic Hood River Valley. Then stop in for some local cider, beer, wine and spirits.
Every fall August would crush up a few barrels of raw squeezed apple cider and let it naturally ferment. He was always a big hit when he’d bring the barrels back out for the New Years Eve party that following winter. Five generations later, his Great Great Grandsons still work the land. Growing not only apples, but pears, cherries, peaches and more.
In 2009 Bob Fox and long time friend Justin Cardwell began doing test batches of hard cider. Foreseeing that in the next few years there would be a reemergence of the cider industry. Cider was America’s drink of choice before prohibition. In 2013, Fox-Tail opened its doors in the heart of the fruit growing area of the Hood River Valley and have taken their place on the Hood River County Fruit Loop Map, #6, 10 scenic miles from the Old Parkdale Inn Bed and Breakfast. Designate a driver before heading out to explore the ciders, beers, wines, and spirits of the Hood River Valley.
