We all looked at the old farmer cider rules at one time but I think you 
would find the distribution and sales very limited. Plus as stated earlier 
your State CB is going to have the final say.   

Just do it, permitting takes a bit of time and some back and forth but for 
the most part the people you deal with will work with you. If you keep your 
ABV under 7% will pay only about $.17 a gallon and if you choose, can label 
following FDA guidelines rather than going through the COLA process.  

You might want to consider getting a permit for Wine rather than Cider. We 
ran into a problem when we wanted to produce a Pommeau style product and 
were told that we did needed a Wine Permit.

Hi Folks 
Doing a bit of research on the German cider industry and wondered if   
anyone had good english speaking contacts there, or details of a   
producers association. 

thanks 
Warwick
