ST. CLOUD - You can sample several varieties of hard cider on Saturday. The first ever CiderFest will be held at Joe Faber Field in St. Cloud.

Spokesman Christian Medford says they'll have over 75 ciders on hand.

Redd's Apple Ale will be right on your left, as well as Johnny Appleseed, and others in the front lawn area. Then, you go into the sports deck area and you'll see Angry Orchard, and Woodchuck, and a couple other Minnesota ciderees. Then, actually on the sports deck we'll have Dr BBQ from the Food Network.

Medford says they have some other fun things planned for the event as well.

So we have Smith and Forge as our title sponsor. They're doing something really fun, they're shipping a bunch of their arm wrestling stuff, and that sounds silly, but they have an arm wrestling machine that they are shipping to us for the event.

Medford says V-I-P admission opens at 1:00 p.m., and general admission starts at 2:00 p.m.

General admission tickets are $25, but you can get them for a discounted price through The Value Connection.
