Weekly Not So Obvious
Are you ready to play Not So Obvious? This half-trivia, half-Connections style game is a great way to tease your brain while having some fun!
Every week, your team receives a list of things that have something obvious in common with all of them. Look over the list and then race against the other teams to figure out what is "not so obviously" in common with the items as well!
Every Thursday Night from May through December, at 6:30 PM
Hints and previews posted on our socials every week!

An Evening of Intrigue & Magic
It'll be a night to remember this December, when magician Matthew Hary comes to Yankee Cider Barn. Enjoy walk-around magic right at your table while sipping on a delicious drink from the tap room. Matthew is a Ledyard-local who has performed his shows throughout Connecticut and has also been featured at Comix Roadhouse at Mohegan Sun. Thoroughly entertaining in a you-can’t- turn-away fashion, Matthew’s quick-witted comedy, combined with masterful sleight-of-hand magic, grabs you hard and doesn’t let go until it’s over.
This event is open to the public but is recommended for ages 16 and up. There are no tickets for this event; it is a free event. In the event of rain, the event will be held indoors.
December 14th - 5:00 PM
Cookie Exchange
It's a good, old-fashioned cookie swap! Bring a dozen of your favorite cookies to the Cider Barn on December 20th at 6:30 PM to swap and share with others! Get into the holiday spirit with a glass of hard cider and all manner of different types of cookies. Peanut butter kisses, almond loaf, chocolate chip, sugar, and plenty more!
There is no charge to attend, but only individuals bringing cookies will be allowed to swap. Please bring a copy of the recipe, as well as mark if there are any allergens in your cookies. Any dishes or platters should be disposable - we will try our best to return your plate to you but it cannot be guaranteed!
