Bottle from their cider club box. Maybe 1.5yrs on the shelf, month in the fridge. Lo-ball glass @home. Dark brown, intentionally still, jellied & not quite clear. Too quiet on the nose. A bit too cold perhaps. Oily wood, browned apples, brown sugar. Browned apple, subtle spice, tart, lemon, core, popsicle stick, tea-like tannins, too much oxidation. Tacky, old, suprisingly boozy for just 7%. Not at it's best.

Bottle from their cider club. Got lost behind a couple of repeats. Mojito glass @home. Pours a not perfectly clear orange amber. Intentionally still. Browned apple, warm orange juice, Lipton Tea. Almost like a mild punch. Apple/cherry juicebox/Jello sweetness. Lemon. Oak. Pith. Tea. Drying, but not so dry, tart finish. Like a mellower, rounder version of their Krys apple. Thin, okay to strong acid, very easy to drink, hidden abv, puckering, maybe a touch watered down? Good.

2019 7.5% batch @ home with a Duvel goblet. Same color, more chalk on the nose. Drier taste. Good acid, big tannins, maybe too woody. Lower abv, great bubbles. Better this year. Just missing that third note.

Bottle from their cider club since they are too big time to sell at the local farmer's market anymore. Couple months of basement/fridge nap time. Duvel glass @home. Tiny bit of foam over; Uncharacteristic. Clear, typical pretty pale gold, re-fermented bubbly. Stinky sulfur, really stinky feet. It takes a long while to dissipate. This is also not typical. Fruity, potentially sugary, still fermenting. You really notice the residual sugar. It gives sort of a ghostly browned apple flavor to it. Otherwise, it's honestly bitter, good skin, tight bubbles, not really very minerally like other years. A bit sloppy & left my stomach a little rumble-y. Boozier than the year before, but not harsh. Just not super dry & aromatic, which is what you want out of this. Twas okay. We're picky these days. Will revisit.

Bottle from their fall cider club shipment. Label is their daughter's art. Seems to be some snake & apple garden of Eden stuff. Is this knowledge or just good booze? Cheapo stemless win glass @home. Spritzy, clear, classy golden pour. Boozy, cranberry, peppery arugula, sour apple candy. Taste is cooling cold spoon steel, Jolly Rancher grape, cherry tannic pith, lemon, chalk, fruity & minerally champagne. Less tart then Krys. Nearly bone dry(Farnum Hill owns bone dry), sharp, moderate to high acidity, quite potent. I'm glad they can still turn out bottles with some punch. Even dustier & drier would work. Great.

Came back to a 3/4ths bottle after a week & it was drier & better in all aspects. 3.7 to 4.0 Bottle from their cider club. Everything is shipped, I sure as hell can't give the effort. Glass mug @home. Clear, pale amber. Basic, but heady. Smokey, sticky, caramelized apple nose. Liberty I can now pick out thanks to their constant chatter about it. Not my fav. Crispy, more smokey apple, macerated, sweaty, old sweetness, bittersweet. Soft tartness, mellow but building acidity. Tart & fun Krys apples they put in everything now. Leafy, lingering, yeasty, green bitterness. More heft, little sharpness in this one. Complicated. Bold.

Bottle from their cider club. Duvel glass @home. Chill hazed, jellied, golden ale. Stinky sulfur pour. Maybe some pear. This brand is usually cleaner. Waiting doesn't seem to clear it. Papaya comes in once warm. It's ever so funky. Sweet-tart. Berry, lime, pineapple, rose, the kiwi in the descriptor is accurate. Definitely has Krys apples. A very unique & odd papaya, browned, mixed fermentation flavor. Continuous tart, lingering, consuming finish. Concentrated. Lick your lips & there is more tartness. Wood pulp. Fruity, spirited, very tart, moderately sour, fun, mellow abv. Good.
