Five years ago (before the club cider purchases--thank you, Mark Glewwe and Chris Smith!) I would phone Pine Tree Orchard in White Bear Lake and ask them to save me XX gallons of straight cider the next time they pressed, and they were happy to do it.  They would phone me later and say, "we're pressing on Thursday, so pick up anytime after that".  Although I didn't have kids at that time, I think that Pine Tree has activities for families on the weekends, making for guilt-free time spent chasing cider ingredients!

Subject: [mnbrewers] club cider buy?

Is there a club cider buy this year, that we pick up at teach a friend to homebrew day? If so I have missed the communications somehow.

If not, can anyone post info about juice is available that would be similar to what we have bought that way, and where one might get it? (The fresh frozen unpasteurized stuff).

Thanks much.
