About

This episode features Chad Kimmel of Grand illusion Hard Cider. The name Grand Illusion Hard Cider was inspired by magic. Slight of hand if you will.  The inspiration for this cider comes from the tasting rooms that you find at breweries. Originally conceived to be a tasting room for wine, Chad made a serendipitous pivot into cider and opened his own vision for what a craft American cidery should be.  He draws his inspiration from his own experiences and and the ciders that he has tried.  Putting his own spin on the flavor profile.  Grand Illusion opened its doors on February 2018 and has quickly become an anchor attraction in downtown Carlisle, PA.      26 W High St, Carlisle, PA 17013 - (717) 462-4716 - www.grandillusioncider.com - Facebook Highlights from our discussion: Wyndridge Cider Co.
