Blake's has a new hard cider out in honor of the 75th anniversary of Blake's Farms.

The new offering is Apple Pie Hard Cider. Blake's actually announced the news on National Apple Pie Day (May 13), which seems appropriate.

The fresh flavor is "made with a base of fresh-pressed dessert apples combined with hints of cinnamon and vanilla, honors Blake’s apple orchard origins," according to a release, and is only available this year.

Blake’s Hard Ciders are always a proprietary five apple blend of apples grown, harvested, pressed, and fermented on the farm, and they're always gluten-free.

Blake’s Apple Pie Hard Cider (6.5% ABV) will be available in 12-ounce 6-pack cans and arrive on store shelves in 16 states, including Michigan, in early June.

It's also available through Blake's website.
