Radiant and balanced, BrightCider shines with Newtown Pippin apples, the pioneer variety that defined the cider palate of the Northwest.
BrightCider is made with a blend of Newtown Pippin heirloom apples and other Northwest varieties. The Newtown Pippin was the apple which defined the palate of new world ciders. Colonists found this apple so remarkable that Thomas Jefferson himself wrote from France during his travels " they have no apples here to compare with our Newtown Pippin." The BrightCider is fermented cold to slow the fermentation process, retaining the aromatics of this heirloom fruit. The result is our tribute to American heritage cider with a modern Northwest twist.

Sample at Brave Horse Tavern. Clear pale golden color with a minimal white head and spotty lacing. Aroma of apples and spices. Light to medium body and somewhat dry with a mildly tart apple character and mild spice and berry flavors. The finish is lightly tart with an apple aftertaste. Decent overall.
