This playlist is designed to be a roadmap, taking you through the ins-and-outs of cider. Starting from the beginning, episodes recorded as early as 2011 are full of experts, here to offer a great introduction into producing, tasting, and creatively experimenting with cider. You’ll watch the cider industry quickly rise in popularity through the years, with more recent episodes diving deeper into specifics, including “place-based” apples, “harvest-based cider,” unidentified apples, and barrel aging.

HOSTED BY Jimmy Carbone
This week on Beer Sessions Radio, Jimmy is learning all about building a brewing system in upstate New York. On the show is Dieter Gehring and Scott Veltman from Indiana Ladder Cidery and Brewery in Albany County, NY and Melanie Fronhofer from Fronhofer Design in Glen Falls, NY.
To kick things off, Melanie gives us Fronhofer’s backstory, taking us all the way back to her dad’s machine shop. Fronhofer has come a long way, and recently, they teamed up with Indiana Ladder Cidery Brewery to build a completely new brewery, helping them to create “The Traveler” system out of 100% New York State equipment.
