Rogue Cidery celebrated its grand opening in Issaquah on Tuesday with a ribbon cutting at the Issaquah Brewhouse. The cider, part of Rogue Ales and Spirits, shares space at the Brewhouse, located at 35 W. Sunset Way.

After the ribbon cutting by Mayor Fred Butler, events included apple bobbing and a dunk tank featuring firefighters from Eastside Fire and Rescue.
