Cider Riot (stylized as Cider Riot!) was an American cider producer[1] with a cider house in the Kerns neighborhood in Northeast Portland, Oregon,[2] from 2016[3] until November 2019.[4]

Production of cider began in 2013 and grew to a peak of one thousand barrels annually. Cider Riot earned four International Cider Championship medals from the Royal Bath and West Show between 2017 and 2019.[5][6] The cider house, described as a "gathering place for antifascists, anarchists and other leftists",[7] was the site of a brawl between members of the far-right[8] group Patriot Prayer and the bar's patrons on May Day in 2019.
