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.

Bottle pour at the May 1st DC Tasting. Poured a ruby red color with really no head at all - not shocked. Aroma as light cherry sweetness - almost a light character of cough syrup, like Nyquil. Good thing the flavor isn’t like that. Cherry popsicle like character. Not overly sweet, but it’s there.

Damn nice! Tart cherry/berry/currant; balanced sweet/tart crisp apple; earthy spice. Semidry tart/tannic finish; semicrisp carb. Very smooth

500 ml bottle poured into a Spiegelau tulip. A nod to Donnie Darko which shares my name so of course I had to buy it. And my 100th cider rating. Clear ruby color. Aromas of berries, cherries. Tastes of berries, cherries, light apples, subtle honey, hint of oak. Tasty.
