Hornsby's Pubdrafts produces pub draft hard apple cider. The original Hornsby’s Cider was created by George Hornsby. A proper British gent, George grew up in England and settled in America many years later. He enjoyed his adopted home but missed the smooth and crisp taste of the ciders of his native Britain. So George started making his own cider and slowly introduced his invention to a curious American audience. To George's delight, the Americans loved the quality and flavour of his refreshing drink, and very quickly, Hornsby’s Cider became hugely popular with those looking for an alternative to their traditional brews.
