E.Z. Orchards Cidre is a blend of traditional French cider apple varieties that we grow in our Willamette Valley orchards. Our fermentation method, like the traditional French Methode Ancestral, enhances mature apple aroma, is low in acidity and finishes with a soft effervescence.

On tap at Hair of the Dog, pours a cloudy yellowish blonde with a tiny white head. Nose brings out farmhouse notes, crisp apples, and hay. Flavour is wonderfully funky, with lots of barnyard funk, hay, and crispy dry apples. Funky, rustic and complex, with a tiny bit of residual sweetness. Yeah, this is reminiscent of a true French farmhouse cider. Wonderful.

500 ml bottle from BOTW. Possibly 1-2 years old, though I cannot confirm. Tannic, mineral nose, apples, some caramel. Deep orange-amber color, bubbly. Warm apple flavor, a bit of sweetness, minerals, some cheese, a bit funky, nice tannins. Light to medium light acidity, soft carbonation. A touch phenolic. Prickly, spicy, tannic finish. A lovely cider, probably the best and most traditional cider made in the US that I have tried to date.

500 ml bottle from City Beer. It pours a clear golden color with an initially large fizzy head that disappears quickly. The aroma is nice with strong brett phenolics, a little bandaid some spice and apple. The flavor is a good balance of sweet apples and light funky wild notes. The sweetness comes through rather strong, so I imagine Id probably prefer the dry version, but this is still very complex and tasty. Lots of wild fermentation character that provides a backdrop for the apple sweetness. Probably the second best cider Ive had to date.
