255: Ploughman Farm Cider (or Explosive Crispiness)

Founder and owner of Ploughman Farm Cider, Ben Wenk joins us this episode as we take another of our occasional departures from the world of beer. Wenk is a seventh-generation farmer at Three Springs Fruit Farm in Aspers, PA, where apples for Ploughman products are sourced. We go deep on apples in this one, from training trees to apple genetics, plus the Wenk family farm history, how they got into cider making, the Gettysburg Taproom, and much more. This episode's Happy Fun Time segment features a twist on a classic with There's Weird in My Cider, and some Ploughman ciders are sampled by some participants. Do you love Beer Busters?
