Exotic fruits from the Orangerie at Schönbrunn Palace inspired us to go full lemon with this seasonal. The aromatic zest and albedo of Kaffir Lime, Bergamot, Meyer Lemon and Buddha’s Hand Citron, to name a few, were fermented with fresh pressed wild orchard apple juice. We topped off this brew with Hopsteiner’s experimental Lemon Drop hops for additional notes of melon, mint and green tea.

Bottle from Ciderwinkel. Aroma is heavy on the lemon with lime, additional citrussy notes including some mandarin and bergamot. Picking up some herbal notes. Moderate lemony sourness in the flavour. Light to medium body. Lemon/citrus quite dominant here.

Bottle shared at home. Unclear golden with some white head. Sweet and sour apples, almond spice, lime, bit soapy method/cleaner aroma, nearing melted popsicle and citronella mosquito repellent but also quite refreshing. Quite sweet with a sour edge, mildly bitter. Medium body and soft carbonation.

Vom Fass im Muted Horn Berlin 2018-11 getrunken. Dieses trübe, goldgelbe Cider ist so gar nicht mein Ding, da der Bergamot Einfluss alles wie auch die Limonennote überdeckt und eine unangenhme perfümartiges Aroma hinterläßt. Nein hier bin ich raus!
