Middlebury, Vermont — Magners Irish Cider, the world’s best selling Irish cider, is excited to expand their portfolio in the United States with the addition of Magners Pear cider on draft across the United States.
Magners Pear Cider is crafted in Clonmel, Ireland from 100% premium pears. The Magner’s Cidery has been handcrafting cider since 1935, developing unique fermentation and filtering processes over the decades. This perfected slow fermentation and cold filtering gives Magners Pear a delicate but fresh fruity pear taste.
