Description
Cidrul Harvester este un cidru artizanal obtinut prin folosirea metodei de fermentare englezesti ce presupune fermentarea sucului de mere in totalitate (pana la epuizarea zaharului natural din suc). Cealalta metoda ar fi metoda frantuzeasca, unde are loc stoparea fermentatiei pe parcursul ei, si imbutelierea rapida a cidrului. Fiecare metoda are avantajele si dezavantajele ei, Harvester se obtine prin fermentarea totala a sucului de mere sau de pere, fara adaugare de zahar inainte sau dupa fermentare. Alcoolul se obtine doar din fermentarea sucului 100 %.

Golden brown with a small white head. Aroma is oxidized with sweet red apples, apple core, woody notes and some tart green apple. Flavour is above moderate sweet and light sour. Medium bodied, dry and with soft carbonation.

Clear dark ruby, small pink head with some retention. The aroma is a pretty nice mix of apple and currants, that does not smell neither like a juice nor alcoolic beverage - more like fruit form a rich fruit pie. The taste is sweet with a lot of balancing apple juice acidity, black currants juice adding complexity, and even some cidery funk. Not bad as an easy desert drink. Of course, if you would ignore the cloyingly sweet aftertaste.

Almost clear gold,small head. Smells like apple juice and baked apples. Very sweet, with just a hint of apple skins and a almost undetectable ginger spicy note. Way too sweet.

BOTTLE at BCBF 2017. Hazy golden, surprisingly persistent head. The aroma is has vague notes of pear, some pleasant butyric. The trade is soft fruity, slightly sweet, same butyric notes, pleasant acidic finish. Too sweet for my taste but solid, about the same level as their cider.

BOTTLE at Bucharest Beer Festival. Tart tannic fermented apples, Apple skins. Moderate to big sweetness that feels organic not the supermarket apple juice stuff. Accessible, yet good stuff.
