COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION

A medium cider made with a blend of apple varieties.
Editor’s note: Although the name may suggest otherwise, this cider is only available in bottles. It is not the same product as any draught cider from Sheppy’s that may be encountered.

First created in 2010, this product combines traditional cider apples and eating apples to produce a crisp fruity cider. Medium taste.

ALLOVATE (2098) - Butler, AUSTRALIA - MAY 1, 2012
Furiously effervescent as it hits the glass, it raises up a mountainous white fluffy head that holds on for quite some time. There is ample ripe cider apple pulp on the nose with all things include; the pips, peel and core with an edge of hay, sawdust, hessian and Stilton cheese mustiness. Quite tangy, tart and full of fruit in the mouth. Very light in body, soft and spritzy in mouthfeel. Finish has an edgy roughness, light wood and hessian. Drops of short though, very drying. Controlled sweetness keeps even as it warms, shows a lovely balance of fruit. A simple cider, dangerously drinkable. (50cL, BBE 08/13, Thirsty Camel Butler)

yngwie (10760) - Kristiansand, NORWAY - APR 5, 2012
Bottle. An almost clear one, pale golden in color and with a little white head. Lightly earthy nose, with apples dominating. Lightly acidic hints. Refreshing in the mouth, quite tart and medium bodied. Apples, some earthy hints, apple cores and a citrusy touch in the flavor. A straight forward refreshing and tasteful cider I’d like to have again. 120405
