Cider mill · Ellijay · Georgia

Sixteen hard ciders on tap, made from apples grown on the family's own trees across the road in Ellijay's orchard country. The taproom runs music and food trucks most weekends year-round, but fall is when the crowd from the neighboring orchards spills over for a glass after a morning of picking.
