Runamok Maple & Citizen Cider release 'Tree Tapper' hard cider

Collaboration between two Vermont brands will be available throughout Northeast region

Vermont Business Magazine Runamok Maple, a Fairfax, Vermont-based producer of pure, barrel-aged, infused, and smoked organic maple syrups, has teamed up with fellow Burlington, Vermont-based brand Citizen Cider to once again release Tree Tapper, a maple-based hard cider that features Runamok Maple syrup as its main ingredient.

Back by popular demand, Tree Tapper is entering its third year as a limited-edition cider – and this time around it will be abundantly available throughout the Northeast region. As a cider on the dry side of the spectrum, Tree Tapper has a balanced sweetness with notes of oak, maple, and Belgian candi syrup, giving it rich and hearty characteristics. At 6.9%, it’s the perfect cider to share among friends, enjoy after a long day of tapping trees, or following a day on the ski slopes.

In celebration of the release, Runamok Maple’s signature Sugarmaker’s Cut maple syrup and Citizen Cider’s Tree Tapper hard cider will available together at specialty grocers and retailers throughout the New England region and Tri-State Area. Tree Tapper will also be available in 12-ounce cans, as well as on draft, at participating restaurants/bars (use this locator) and at Citizen Cider’s tasting room in Burlington.

Runamok Maple is no stranger to creative, bold flavors, as its lineup of infused, barrel-aged, and smoked maple syrups has reached 13 different varieties. With flavors like Coffee Infused, Bourbon-Barrel Aged, and Ginger Root Infused, Runamok Maple has proven that maple syrup extends far beyond a breakfast topping and can even be used in baked goods and in your favorite cocktails.
