Description
Cidermaking is a playground of the pretty and the ugly, the bitter and the sweet: It’s never a one-note song when done well. Our apples reflect the striking, complex terroir of Washington’s apple country — from juicy dessert fruit to biting, spirited cider varieties. Simply put, apples contain contradictions. And it’s when we follow their every wild and quiet possibility, and seek out juxtapositions of flavor, that we find our most delicious end result.

On tap at Bale Breaker - Seattle, pours a clear golden blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings out tons of pineapple and cardamom upfront, with a touch of lime. Flavour has plenty of pineapple and lime upfront, with a touch of cardamom to back. Sweet and lightly acidic; not much complexity but competent enough.

Single from Press by Press. A few hours in the fridge. Mojito glass at home. Soda fizz pour. Clear, dull, pale gold. Grassy-apple-lychee-dry grape nose. Taste is catty at first. Big orange & sweet pineapple follows. Sweet onion, sharp apple, white wine, chamomile, slight pith on the tail. Solid acidity throughout. A touch too floral. Off-dry. Decent.

On tap at Bale Breaker - Seattle, pours a clear pale golden with a small white head. Aroma reveals light farmhouse notes and crisp apple skins. Flavour is crisp, with lots of fairly dry, crisp apple skins, a touch of farmhouse notes, and a hint of graininess. Crisp apple skin character on the finish. Not particularly complex, but nicely done.

Pounder from Press online. Born to Run: 23233 Clear, strawberry-peach sorta color, quick fizz. Sour plum, industrial apple nose. Taste is better: Very sharp & lingering apples, quite bitter, sour plum/grape skin, sort of floral, medium acid but really tart. Just a touch of added industrial sweetness & sulfite edge that I really don't like. Thin, medium carb, acidy, unnecessarily boosted abv. Good for the price point.
Revisited May 30, 2025:
Pounder via Press online, couple months in the fridge. Mojito glass at home.
Creamy, sour berry, cheap chardonnay nose.
Very tart, sour melon, white wine, ugly ethanol.
Thin, too sharp, irritating. Somewhat palatable but too unattractive to swig the whole can.

Nice appley, tart, nice balance. Dark gold. Decent cider, though maybe not as complex as I'd like.

On tap at Bale Breaker, pours a clear blonde with a tiny head. Aroma brings out big bourbon notes than sort of come across perfumey, with light toffee and a touch of apple skins. Flavour is full of bourbon — with tons of vanillin — lots of toffee, crisp apple skins, and more vanilla on the finish. Not too sweet, but lots of bourbon and vanilla. Good stuff.
