Cider Season Events at Bivouac

San Diego’s about to get a whole lot sweeter (and spicier) as Bivouac Ciderworks rolls out its Cider Season events. We’re talking pumpkin painting, moonlit paddles, and enough cider to float a boat.

Septemberfest Puts a Twist on Tradition

Bivouac is putting a North Park spin on the traditional Oktoberfest—Septemberfest—and it’s shaping up to be the coolest cousin at the family reunion.

Start your day with a Pumpkin Spice Latte or dive into an Apple Pie Affogato, which is basically dessert for breakfast (and we’re totally okay with that).

As the day rolls on, they’ll be firing up the grill for some fresh brats, serving up crispy chicken schnitzel, and dishing out German potato salad.

Bivouac in October

Once October hits, Bivouac Ciderworks is going full Halloween town on us. The taproom and Adventure Lodge will be decked out in fall finery, ready to host a whole bunch of cool events.

Taste of North Park

They’re bringing their A-game to the Taste of North Park. Swing by for a nibble of their famous yellow curry and a sip of craft cider.

Pumpkin Painting Party

Get your creative juices flowing at the 4th Annual Pumpkin Painting Party.

It’s expanded into the Adventure Lodge this year, which means more room for you to unleash your inner Picasso while sipping on some seriously good cider.

Autumn Tides & Cider Vibes

The Cider & Food Pairing is a team-up with San Diego Mission Bay Resort to bring you a night of perfectly paired entrees and ciders. Plus, you’ll get the inside scoop on San Diego’s cider scene from the experts themselves.

Art, Charms, and Paddles Galore

Enjoy a curated art show featuring local artist Kelly P. Standard, a Craft Cider and Charms Workshop for all you DIY enthusiasts, and even a Full Moon Paddle Adventure. Nothing says “autumn in San Diego” quite like sipping cider under the stars while paddling on Mission Bay.

Boos and Brews Crawl

The Boos and Brews Crawl is an exciting collab with North Park neighbors. Costumes are encouraged, so don’t be afraid to get weird—we certainly will be!

Yappy Hour Pet Costume Contest

For all you pet parents out there, the 4th Annual Yappy Hour Pet Costume Contest is not to be missed. It’s chaotic, it’s adorable, and it’s the perfect excuse to dress up your furry friend as a pumpkin (or a taco, we don’t judge).

The Grand Finale Halloween Trivia

Bivouac Ciderworks is capping off the month with a spooky twist on Thursday Trivia Night. On Halloween, bring your brains (and maybe a zombie costume) for a night of spine-tingling questions, craft cider, and San Diego comfort food.
