Confluence Brewing Company has announced a new distribution partnership with Jefferson County Ciderworks, expanding the availability of the Fairfield-based cidery’s products throughout Central and western Iowa. Beginning April 6, Confluence will take over distribution of Jefferson County Ciderworks products throughout key communities including Grinnell, Marshalltown, Pella, the Des Moines metro, Ames, and Council Bluffs. “I have known Jesse Narducci, founder and cider maker at Jefferson County Ciderworks, for many years — going back to their earliest days,” John Martin, owner of Confluence Brewing Company, said in a news release. “We both started by self-distributing and shared a similar mindset about building something from the ground up.”
