## Resource

This week on The Beer Craft, Beer, and Brewing Podcast, we're talking cider with Jenn Knutzen — graduate of the Cider Institute of North America, Cardinal Craft Brewing alum, and judge at the 2023 Northwest Cider Cup in Portland. Jenn brings a deep well of knowledge about orchards, fermentation, and the way cider culture is carving out its own identity alongside beer and wine. We dig into the craft beyond the basics: how apple varieties shape flavor, what it's like to judge cider professionally, and where cider trends are heading in the Northwest and beyond. If you've ever wondered whether cider belongs in the same conversation as beer — or just wanted to know what makes a great cider tick — this episode is for you. Pour something crisp, because it's always Beer30.
