Dry is a shape-shifter — equally at home at an upscale meal as it is over drinks with friends. The secret to its success is all about the apples: Cider-specific varieties make for dry, complex cider, and there’s no better apple for cider than the tannic and bittersweet Dabinett. Dabinetts aren’t grown in large commercial quantities in the United States — though we’re working to change that. Dry begins with juicy New England dessert fruit and then blends in fermented juice — never concentrate — pressed, fermented, and shipped by our friend Simon Day at Dragon Orchard in Herefordshire, England. The result bridges cider traditions from both sides of the pond for a cider that’s tannic and tremendously tasty.

Slightly aged apple nose. Clear amber. Slightly tangy apple but mostly dry. Light bidy, easy carbonation. Good balance. Quaffable.

4-pack from my sort of local Keyfood. SN Sidecar glass. Spritzy, clear amber gold body. Macerated, floral apple scent. Browned apple & nutty sweetness & bitter/tannic leafy flavor. Minerally, cedar-like woodiness, thin but tacky. Low to moderate acid, low tartness, okay to strong carbonation. Boozy for a little over 5%. Very solid for under $3 a can. Not my first choice, but I'll gladly take it.

Can from Craft Brewed. Pours a clear gold with a small finger of head that dissipates. Musty old apples on the nose with some farmyard funk. Very European nose with some hay and must, green apple skins and wet wood. Crisp, clean and dry with some light peppery seed notes and more musty apple skin on the finish. Dry finish. --- Beer merged from original tick of Dry on 29 Jun 2018 at 22:38 - Score: 7. Original review text: Musty apples, horseblanket, wet hay and green apple skin aromas. Funky and tart, w/ an old world European character. Lingering must and funk

Excellent! Tart red/green/crisp apples/fruit peel/herbal/yeast earth/lt spice. Very dry/med carb. Fairly crisp. Lingering acid/tannins, no harshness. Very flavorful/refreshing. Great fruit complexity/balance w/ yeast. One of the better dry ciders I've had
