Wooden Gate makes small-batch, unfiltered ciders from Manitoba apples and fruit: Orchard Queen, a rosé cider from Kerr crabapples; Slow Burn, a smoky modern cider that won gold at the 2025 Canada Beer Cup; the Imperial, a strong cider from cold-concentrated late-season juice; barrel-aged Three Spirits and Over a Barrel; and fruit ciders such as Jam Tart, Dark Side, Union (pear and apple) and L'il Fruity.
Wooden Gate's packaged cider (HTS 2206.00.15, "Cider, fermented, whether still or sparkling") 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. We found no public statement from the maker about US sales.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.
