Atlanta Hard Cider Co. & Atlanta Distillery began with a simple idea in a Marietta garage. Founders Mark and Liz Deno took their love of apples and started fermenting small batches of cider for fun. That hobby soon grew into something much bigger: a full-fledged cidery and distillery producing some of Georgia’s most popular apple-forward beverages. Today, the brand has expanded beyond the state, sharing its ciders and apple-based spirits across neighboring markets while staying true to its small-batch, family-owned roots.
At the heart of Atlanta Hard Cider Co. is a lineup of handcrafted ciders made with all-natural ingredients. Flavors range from Crisp Apple and Honey Bee to Pomegranate, Rosé, Tepache, and rotating seasonal varieties. The taproom also experiments with one-off small batches for those looking to try something new. Beyond cider, the distillery produces vodka, American dry gin, eau de vie apple brandy, and several barrel-aged creations, including toasted, charred, and port barrel releases. Each bottle is gluten-free, hand-bottled, and produced on-site in Marietta.
Visitors to the taproom can also order from a cocktail menu that shows off the creativity of the team. Drinks like the Key Lime Dream, Peach Heat, and The Wanda Cosmo bring bold flavor combinations to the forefront. Classics get an orchard twist too, with the Marietta Mule, East Cobb Espresso Martini, Boozy Cold Brew, and Smoked Old Fashioned highlighting the lineup. For those wanting a playful sip, the taproom also offers shooters, slushies, and jello shots. Spirit flights are available for guests who want to sample across the range before committing to a bottle.
Atlanta Hard Cider Co. & Atlanta Distillery is as much about atmosphere as it is about what’s in the glass. The taproom hosts regular events, from themed Spirit Week celebrations and trivia nights to pop-ups with local food vendors like La Pizza, Dano’s Dogs, and Chef Disa’s Nola Kingston. Guests can enjoy live music, art classes, and even line dancing nights paired with cider specials. The wide variety of happenings keeps the calendar packed and gives guests a reason to stop by again and again.
