We will be bringing Stupid Man Suit to the masses in April. Originally described as ‘Dark Fruit Cider’, this ciders branding was inspired by the film Donnie Darko. Obviously we took the leap from “Dark” to “Darko” and happened to come across the amazing creepiness of the bunny from the movie and set this label in motion. The name is a pull from one of our favorite lines from the movie…when Donnie asks, “Why are you wearing that stupid bunny suit?” To which Frank replies, “Why are you wearing that stupid man suit?” This cider joins our series of ciders that we have been producing using all sorts of different fruits. This is really the first one that we tried combinations of fruit, such as raspberry, black currant and cherry to make its own unique and complex flavor that is sure to set it above the rest.

One of the very few ciders I've had that maintains any kind at all of lingering head. The Aromas are cherry apple cider with hints of raspberries and currants. Flavors are sweet tart with cherry domination. Nice body and finish very easy drinking.

Draught, taster, TTO at Taphouse. Deep purple coloured body. Shiny naked surface, poor lacing. Modest berry skins on the nose with a touch of apples. Juicy kind of flavour with moments of tart cherries and sweet apples. Sticky sweet ending. Clean in the mouth. Okay in smaller amounts. (Copenhagen 13.05.2018).

50cl bottle pours with a clear purple body that has a bit of sparkling carbonation going on. The aroma offers up berries, cherries and maybe some currants. Fruity aroma but not rich and jammy smelling. The taste is similar with semi bright berry and cherry fruitiness. It dries out pretty well into the finish.

Aroma is apple cinnamon cream and raisins. Apple strudel. Taste is sour apple with lots of cinnamon and christmas type spices. Some slight tannins. Low carbonation. Sweet finish. Nice.
