A bicoastal refresher that is almost out of this world. Made in collaboration with our friends at Homage Brewing using local apples from the Lost Apple Project and organic California clementine zest from Mud Creek Ranch. Homage sources citrus for their genre-bending beers, inspiring this fruity collision of mimosa meets tart apple.

Clear bottle from their cider club while writing out Christmas cards to all of those we love, but maybe don't really want to visit much. Lo-ball glass @home. Dull gold body. Two months of settling & a few weeks of chill haven't done squat. Smells like botanical, infused apple cider vinegar with a touch of vanilla on the tail. Appalachian hippies love this shit. Hard citrus burn & tart apples dominate. Sour orange, lemon, salt, gum, yeasties, lingering orange oil. It all hides some of the robust vinegar that I'm getting a little tired of. Though this is the strongest orange-related infusion I can remember. Good carbonation, yeastatic, okay booze. Just okay. Maybe deserves a less bias revisit.
