Don’t worry – we left some apples for the deer.
This year, 2021 marks our fifth vintage of Deer Snacks, and it is better and more wild than ever. Each year we blend wild foraged apples from the Lost Apple Project with orchard fruit to bring you a complex but fun-loving cider. For the design, we partner with a different artist each year to give the new vintage a fresh look. This year, that artist is Eva Claycomb.
Tasting Notes: Vermont forest floor, dried leather, herbs, roasted apples

Cans from Shacksbury. Highball @home. Murky green tea gold. Tart, prickly nose. Sour pickle. Sweet kiwi. Soggy flowers. It honestly smells good. Taste is a less intense Sidra. Less off-dirty funk, more saturated apple & plenty of citrus acidity. Just under seriously dry. No rubber, maybe some negligible plastic off flavors. Yeasty, papaya-ish lingering finish. Better than last year's. Prickly, strong carbonation, yeasty feel, parching tacky end. Good.
