Let’s hope that this is indicative of their intentions/efforts: Hall: "It’s very important for us to get it right. Last fall we did 180 test batches using different apples and yeast strains to find a combination that tasted to me like an English cider. I don’t know if we’ll be able to match that next year--like wine, vintages of cider can vary based on the year’s apple crop. My goal is to make a delicious cider every year, not necessarily to make it exactly the same."
Message NobleSquirrel beers 3437 º places 209 º 10:28 Mon 10/1/2012 FYI, this cider has been around since almost the beginning of the year. He is making some pretty great cider thus far.

Message GT P beers 10001 º places 672 º 12:54 Mon 10/1/2012 Is there a reason for strictly "English" cider? I’ve never done a cider tour of England, but after a cider tour of Normandy, I don’t know why that wouldn’t be your starting off point for wickedly good cider.

I’ve never done a cider tour of England, but after a cider tour of Normandy, I don’t know why that wouldn’t be your starting off point for wickedly good cider. I’m open to everything and have liked Etienne Dupont as a French cider, but after SilkTork took me on a tour of cider in the Southwest of England, I’m strongly partial to English cider. This is where Mike should chime in about his cidre tours.
