Farm Club's Golden Russet Cider
Bottoms Up
May 24, 2025
Farm Club, the restaurant-on-a-farm hotspot in Leelanau County, is also a hopping little brewery. But rather than go for the beer on our latest visit, we opted for a glass of the Golden Russet cider (half pour pictured). Made with golden russet and dabinett apples (both delicate, mild-flavored classics for cider-making), this Farm Club creation goes down nice and easy, complementing the menu packed with farm-grown veggies. (Do keep an eye on the ABV, which is a little higher than most ciders you’ll encounter in NoMi at 8.3 percent.) There are two other ciders on the menu: the Pub Cider, featuring bramtôt, dabinett, crimson crisp, and aromatic dessert apples; and the Farm Club Harvest Cider, a dry, heirloom option from their 2023 stash. Drink up at 10051 Lake Leelanau Drive just outside Traverse City. farmclubtc.com
