Attendees can drink cider out of a whole pineapple and sample five different pineapple-themed ciders on tap, including Pineapple Rosé, 100% Pineapple, Passion Fruit Pineapple, Tropical Sangria, and Hop’ Rageous with freshly blended pineapple juice.
There will also be live Hawaiian island musical performances and hula dancers between 3pm and 5pm, including hula taught by respected Kumu Hula (master teachers in the art of hula) from Hawaii and the Pacific Northwest in partnership with the Ke Kukui Foundation.
A Hawaiian food menu made by Portland Cider’s chefs will feature traditional Hawaiian plates of Huli Huli chicken, Kalua pork, mac salad, and more. There will also be a tropical themed photo booth for memories, and plenty of outdoor and indoor seating.
Admission into the event is free. Cider and food are available for purchase on-site without advance tickets, but those who wish to drink their ciders out of a whole pineapple are highly encouraged to purchase advance tickets to reserve the fruit. There are two packages available through Merc Tickets: the Holoʻokoʻa Ohana ($23) which includes a pineapple, two pint fills, and one Hawaiian meal; or the Pineapi Aloha ($9) which includes a pineapple and one pint fill.
