A collaboration with our neighbours to the North has resulted in this blend of Michigan Apples and Saskatchewan Saskatoons. The Saskatoon is a small prairie berry that gives our apples a smooth and lush taste with a bite of tartness at the finish.

This deep bodied, rich violet hued cider is a drink that just like friendship, knows no borders.

Bomber from The Davis Beer Shoppe. Pours an interesting deep copper color. Aroma is almost berry. Fairly thick body for a cider. Flavor is very apple/berry. Slightly astringent apple skin notes. Finishes just short of dry. From what I can find on the web a Saskatoon seems to be a lot like a berry. Sort of fits a picture on a back label corner. Nice tasting cider.

Sampled at the 2013 Chicago Cider Summit. Pours a clear ruby amber with no head whatsoever. Aroma has a nice combination of tart and sweet apple that is slightly dry. Aroma has more full sweet apple with a bit of dryness in the finish. Really easy to drink.

Twenty-two ounce (that’s how the label states it) bottle from Beer Run. Pours a hazy dark orange color with a thin white head, of which a thin ring persists. Pretty dark for a cider. Aroma of earthy, almost smoky apples, some sweetness and some vanilla. The taste is apples... sweet up front with a dry finish, apple skins, vanilla. Lightly tart on the very back end. Well balanced. Medium bodied. Quite an interesting cider.
