Bottle, gifted by Matt. Thanks! This sounds amazing. Anything with peppers makes my want list. A mostly pale apple juice pour with no head. A very solid hot pepper influence here. Breathe in too hard while sipping on this, and you will be coughing. Pepper heat, but doesn’t overpower the flavor. Apple still present. Cream. A fantastic cider to sip on and enjoy the massive flavor going on here. Very nice cider, one of the better ones in recent memory.

Hazy golden with no head. Apple, slight hat, yeast, some spice, and light sweetness. Finish is tart and medium dry. A very enjoyable cider. Well-balanced with enough complexity to stand out but also highly drinkable.

Pinkish colour, no head. Has a nice plum and apple aroma. Tart on the palate, not much carbonation. Has light plum influence, won’t call it super clean. Ok.

On tap at Bottleworks, pours a hazy amber orange with a small white head. Aroma brings out sweet red apples, honey and red fruits. Flavour is very dry, with lots of apple skins, some vinous notes, and light acidity. Finishes dry, lightly acidic, and no sweetness. Good stuff.

500ml bottle at the December 2016 DC area cider tasting. Poured a clear golden color with a small white head. Aroma was spicy! Lots of hot habanero notes. Flavor wasn’t nearly as spicy - but the heat exists in this one. The gimmick was quite good in my opinion.
