Corvallis, Ore., May 18, 2026 — 2 Towns Ciderhouse is proud to announce five award-winning ciders recognized at the 9th Annual Cidercraft Awards, including a rare and exciting achievement where both the alcoholic and non-alcoholic versions of Guava Get Down earned Platinum honors in their respective categories.

The annual blind-tasting competition featured entries from across the United States, Canada, and Ukraine, honoring the innovation, craftsmanship, and creativity shaping the future of cider.

2 Towns Ciderhouse received the following honors:

  • Platinum — N/A Guava Get Down (Low Alcohol / Alcohol Removed)
  • Platinum — Guava Get Down (Tropical)
  • Gold — Original Cosmic Crisp (Imperial Cider – Apple Only)
  • Judges’ Pick — Dry Fidelity (Modern-Dry)
  • Judges’ Pick — Huckleberry Cosmic Crisp (Imperial Cider – Adjuncts)

The dual Platinum recognition for Guava Get Down highlights 2 Towns Ciderhouse’s ability to deliver a premium craft cider experience across both alcoholic and non-alcoholic formats without compromise.

As one of the cidery’s newest releases, Guava Get Down has quickly emerged as a standout example of the innovation and technical craftsmanship driving the next generation of cider. At the same time, Original Cosmic Crisp, one of the company’s earliest and most iconic releases, earned Gold in the Imperial Cider category, reinforcing the consistency and staying power of the 2 Towns portfolio.

Together, the awards showcase a cidery equally capable of pushing boundaries with new releases while continuing to elevate the products that helped define the brand.

“These awards are especially exciting because they recognize both innovation and consistency across our lineup,” said co-founder and CEO Lee Larsen. “To see both the alcoholic and non-alcoholic versions of Guava Get Down earn Platinum honors speaks to the level of intention and craftsmanship our team brings to every product. Whether someone chooses alcohol or non-alcoholic, we believe they deserve the same elevated cider experience.”

The recognition adds to a growing list of national and international accolades for 2 Towns Ciderhouse and further reinforces the cidery’s leadership in both premium craft cider and the rapidly growing adult non-alcoholic beverage space. To view the full list of winners, visit Cidercraft Magazine.
