Windmill Ridge makes ciders from its own orchard fruit, including Apple, Peach and Pear ciders and an award-winning Apple-Peach cider, farm beers such as Orchard Ale, Farmhand Lager and Tractor Fuel Stout, and pear, peach and sparkling peach wines.
Windmill Ridge's packaged cider (HTS 2206.00.15, "Cider, fermented, whether still or sparkling"), canned beer (HTS 2203.00.00, "Beer made from malt") and bottled fruit wines can no longer ship to the US: the US import ban on listed Canadian alcohol took effect September 29, 2026, after a 50% Section 338 duty that applied from August 22, 2026. Its Apple-Peach Cider won gold at the 2023/2024 US Cider Open, but we found nothing saying it sold in the US; its site offers local delivery in Windsor-Essex.Source: whitehouse.gov, Sep 8, 2026
You must be of legal drinking age in your province to buy alcohol. Rules on shipping alcohol between provinces vary, so buy from the maker directly or through your provincial liquor store. We only link to makers; nothing is sold on this site.
