4.2 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 17/20Draft at Churchkey. Clear honey colored pour with minimal bubbly head. Nose and flavor bring gorgeous tart apple skins, hints of oak tannin, funk, cheesecloth, and apple juice. Flavor brings a touch less acidity and bite, but still that amazing complex real apple skin character. Clean, refreshing, and ridiculously clean for 7%; I can’t even imagine the volume I could drink were it cheaper. Fantastic.

Bottle shared in the GTMW ticket line, thanks Matt! I think this was from 2008 harvest and bottled in 2009, pours a clear golden with a thin head and bubbles through out, the aroma has a nice softness of apples mixed in with a little bit of vanilla from the barrels, the flavor has a perfect sweetness of apples with oak and vanilla in the finish, broke up the giant stouts we were opening up perfectly, awesome.

2010 vintage. Dry apples, barnyard, oak, dust, leather. Medium gold, lots of bubbles at first but head dies immediately. Sweet apple falvor to start, dries out quickly, leather, dust, oak, light forse blanket. Nicely tannic, slightly acidic. Excellent depth of flavor. Delicious. These guys make the best cider in the world!

Il mio primo sidro artigianale. Aroma fruttato, con note tanniche e una leggera componente legnosa. Si presenta in un bel biondo paglierino con un gradevole perlage. Al palato emerge subito un effervescenza esuberante, che lo rendono molto simile a uno spumantino. Resta una bevuta molto complessa dove note fruttate si mescolano perfettamente a quelle legnose e leggermente acide dell’invecchiamento. Entrambe sono sostenute dalla vivace frizzantezza. Ottimo.
