Located at 504 State Street in Greensboro, Bull City Ciderworks sells cider on tap and in bottles. It is open daily and offers indoor and outdoor seating as well as cider delivery. Food trucks appear regularly.
I prefer cider to beer and have long been a fan of Bull City’s products (their Lexington cidery is worth the drive), so when they opened up shop last month in the former Gibbs Hundred location, a visit was inevitable. It did not disappoint. With the main and back rooms open, there was plenty of space, and the outdoor area offers a fire pit. The bartender on duty was friendly and offered helpful recommendations.
My wife and I were in “try it all” mode and split a pair of flights. We were
able to mix old favorites (Cherry Tart, Cardinal Cin, and Rhyze Up) with new
seasonal offerings. Rico Guave (guava) was a hit, and though I am not always a
dry cider fan, Brightleaf (a crisp and clean unfiltered) won me over. Spruce
Bringsteen tasted like drinking a Christmas tree, and though some may find that
offputting, Bull City definitely gets points for originality.
As with
Trader Joes, I’m mildly miffed that Bull City came to Greensboro only after I resettled
High Point, but as with several other Greensboro favorites, some things are
well worth the drive.
