Description
Our brewmaster Karl fermented his first cider as a young schoolboy, many years before he was of legal age to taste it. Since then, he has never stopped experimenting with all sorts of fruits and flavors. This passion for natural ingredients and the wonders of fermentation is shared by our team and is reflected in our range of innovative ciders.

(Bottle) Golden amber colour with foamy, off-white head. Fruity, slightly floral nose with notes of apples, orange peel, pears, honey and grapefruit. Fruity taste with apples, orange, hay, honey, grapefruit peel and a balanced acidity in the finish. Light body, mainly dry. Tasty and refreshing. Not very bitter, but the hops come through as citric notes. Quite nice.

Many thanks to Beerhunter111 for sharing! Fruity Beginning. Easy to drink. Moderate sweetish with a fruity finish. Very well balanced, not too sour with a very mild fruity finish.

Can smell the additives from 1.5m distance. Oh 😩 Gawd. Theres passionfruit and orange peels in this cider, also hopped. It tastes like Sangria. Fruits, cinnamon, added sugar. I passionately hate this “cidery” by this point. Not my game, but drinkable. 💀

Clear golden. Sweet applejuice, light herbal and bitter hop influence, bit of oak impression and an equal bit of glue. Light sweet, moderate bitter. Medium body and low carbonation.

This really is not my brand. My mistake. I like pure hard ciders. Overload of spices. Cooked apple pie apples with ginger, cinnamon and nutmeg. Sweet and tart and overspiced. Medium body, soft carbonation. Overly complicated and unnatural. No farm no fun.

Unclear golden with little white head. Sweet & somewhat sickly, tart edges. Some added vanilla aroma and cinnamon, trying to raise those watery apples to an apple pie. Tbh it feels halfass and cheap, maybe more so because of that last clove bomb.

Disturbing amount of seabuckthorn berry pulp & even more horrifying amount of cloves. This glass is fuming like a Kretek cigarette. Can’t even stand to sip this. Looks gross & tastes disgusting. Sickly sweet & sour, cloves, fermenting berries, turmeric.
