Making better cider standard.

Our cider is made by fermenting fresh Pennsylvania apple juice, straight from the orchard and into our tanks. We thoughtfully incorporate ingredients like hops or fruit to create sessionable ciders that are balanced yet complex.

Hale & True opened in April 2018, but the planning started years before that. In 2013, we made our first batch of cider in our tiny Old City apartment. It was naturally dry and delicious. After that, we were sold. Now, we are excited to share our love of making and drinking cider, highlighting its diversity and supporting local agriculture.

Our award-winning cidery and taproom is located in Philadelphia, right off South Street. We serve cider made on-site, carefully crafted cocktails - often incorporating our cider - as well as local beer, wine, spirits, non-alcoholic options, and snacks. Guests are encouraged to bring their own food.

Our cider is also available for shipping nationwide, and at bars, restaurants, and stores in the greater Philadelphia area.

We are so grateful for our family, friends, staff, and local community that make Hale & True what it is. Thank you.

- Kerry and Risa McKenzie, Owners of Hale & True
