Imperial Blueberry Hard Cider
We pressed one that’s true to us, made with 100% homegrown all-American apples and real blueberries. It’s a delicious patchwork of sweet, tart and dry, balanced to bring the best local flavors forward. You’re in cider country now.

A 2$ can from vintage. Pour reminds me of pink ginger ale, looks clear with a bubbly pink tinge. No head. Nose is a tad boozy on mild berry. Stronger cider flavor, some berries and a warming sensation down the middle. There is berry fruit, but no discernible character of blueberry. Yes its tart, but you really can't say its dry. A little sweet for what it is. You'd think 8% cider would be much drier than this stuff. Not saying it isn't tasting good, just saying it comes across like many alky soda bombs. Yes, rather smooth for what it is and it goes down easy except for the alarming warming sensation. Just hope the sugar don't play havoc with my poor little tummy, hehehehh.

The aroma is of blueberries and apples. The flavor is very sweet with blueberries, apples, and booze. It’s okay but I wish they’d cut the sweetness some.
