It’s official… the American Cider Association will partner with the Brewers Association to bring CiderCon alongside the annual Craft Brewers Conference in San Antonio, Texas, this coming April. ACA Board President Christine Walter first shared this news with us when BREWER & Cider Business Editor Jon Sicotte recorded an interview the morning after the judging and awards wrapped up at the 2026 GLINTCAP in Grand Rapids, Michigan in May. In this edition, Walter explains how this partnership came together, why the ACA decided now was the right time, and what cidermakers can expect when CiderCon and CBC come together in 2027.
