Ace Cider is a hard cider company based in Sebastopol, California, United States. It is publicly owned operated by Vintage Wine Estates, Inc. (NASDAQ: VWE) (TSX: VWE.U) (TSX: VWE.WT.U)




History


California Cider was founded by Jeffrey House in July 1993. The company makes cider, an alcoholic beverage fermented from apples, and was one of the first cider companies formed in the US after the end of Prohibition. ACE Cider also opened the first modern cider-centered pub in the US in 1999. While the pub closed in 2010, the company maintains a cider tasting room on its premises. House located his business in the Sonoma County historic apple growing region because it reminded him of his native England.
On November 15, 2021, Ace Cider was sold to Vintage Wine Estates, Inc. for $47.4 million. In July 2024, Vintage Wine Estates filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection, with plans to sell all of its assets, including Ace Cider.
Ultimately, ACE was purchased from VWE in 2024, by Reva Lipton and Gila Lipton Blums, two sisters, with a passion for making hard cider, using natural ingredients and eliminating "junk" from their products.
Although the sisters own ACE, the daily operations, continue to rely on the dedicated team of staff who have worked, collaborated and committed their time and skill to making ACE into the successful company it now is.




Location


ACE Cider has become a significant employer in the largely rural "West County" portion of Sonoma County.Sebastopol California, home of the Gravenstein apple. The company's existence and success (as demonstrated by rapid sales growth in the 3–5 years prior to 2013 in particular) bucks the trend of the "homogenization" of the county's agricultural economy, i.e. the domination of agriculture by the production of wine grapes.
