We created a very distinct brew that is a combination of a classic English ale and traditional dry cider. Our unique blend produces a malt forward, dry apple finish. Never sweet, always drinkable, this is what a specialty ale should taste like. It is a truly unique combination that brings the best of two craft worlds together - the crisp and tart apple taste with the best of ale - the color, head and mouth feel.
Package: 16oz can, draft
Yeast: American Ale
Malts: Maris Otter, Crystal, Aromatic
Hops: East Kent Golding
Chapman’s Ale Cider starts with a big helping of malted barley, cracked right here in our brewery. The barley is specifically chosen for the unique way it interacts with the fresh apple cider. Add some hops and the mix creates the wort - this is the amazing liquid that is rich with complex flavors and sugars.

tap at Ft Wayne Oktobeerfest 2013 - This brew smells of... duh... apples. It’s sweet, bubbly, and straightforward with the apples. Light bodied. Decent. It’s better than Redd’s, but granted that’s not setting the bar very high.

Draft sample @ Ft. Wayne Oktobeerfest. Yeasty apple and barley malt aroma. Clear amber with a small off-white head. Flavor follows the nose with barley malt and apple. Light body, moderate carbonation. I’m giving it props for being better than Redds, and being a new brewer in my locality.
