Corvallis, OR – June 25, 2026 — 2 Towns Ciderhouse has been recognized as a 2025 Impact Hot Brand, marking the fifth time the Oregon cidery has earned one of the beverage industry’s most respected growth awards.

To qualify, brands must meet rigorous sales and volume benchmarks, including strong year-over-year growth and annual sales exceeding 200,000 2.25-gallon cases.

The 2025 recognition marks 2 Towns Ciderhouse’s fifth Impact Hot Brand Award, following previous honors for the brand’s performance in 2019, 2021, 2022, and 2024. The achievement reflects the company’s continued momentum in a highly competitive beverage marketplace and underscores growing consumer interest in craft cider.

“It’s incredible to see how far we’ve come – not just as a company, but as part of a cider community that has helped reshape the craft beverage landscape,” said Lee Larsen, co-founder and CEO of 2 Towns Ciderhouse. “When we started 16 years ago, cider was still a relatively small category in the United States. Today, more consumers than ever are discovering the quality, creativity, and authenticity that craft cider offers. Being named a Hot Brand for the fifth time reflects the continued growth of craft cider and the strength of the community behind it. We’re proud to help lead that momentum while staying true to the values that have guided us from the beginning.”

Since its founding in 2010, 2 Towns Ciderhouse has remained committed to crafting cider from fresh-pressed Pacific Northwest apples while pushing the category forward. Today, the company produces a diverse portfolio of alcoholic and non-alcoholic ciders distributed across the western United States.

The award comes during a milestone year for 2 Towns Ciderhouse as the company celebrates its 16th anniversary. Over the past sixteen years, 2 Towns has grown into one of the nation’s most awarded cider producers, earning more than 585 tasting awards while helping elevate the visibility and appreciation of craft cider nationwide.
