Cider meets hops in this refreshing mash up of flavours. We’ve taken our fruity 2015 vintage medium dry cider & infused it with a blend of Challenger, Sterling & Archer hop extracts. You won’t find any artificial flavours or sweeteners, just pure refreshment. Enjoy!

Can from Sainsburys. Golden in colour, with moderate fizziness. Aroma of apple juice mixed with some musty herbs. Flavour had some medium dry fruit, a hint of funkiness and the same herbal edge in the finish. The novelty of the hops took this above the mundane. Ok.

Can from Tesco and drunk at home. Clear pale gold colour lasting white head. Some apple aroma and a little fresh hop flower on the aroma too. A medium sweet cider with a little apple character but mostly frothy carbonation. Not terrible at all. But the apple flavour is fairly simple and straightforward. A little bit of proper apple cider character but it’s quite swell hidden. OK.
