Description
Went bankrupt in 2024, but continued with change in ownership in 2025.

Vaak worden appels uit hoogstamboomgaarden niet geoogst omdat de oogst, ladder op en af, niet rendabel is voor appels die te klein of te groot zijn voor een winkelschap, of die een vlekje hebben. Als we er cider van maken is dit een ander verhaal: het gaat ons om de smaak van het sap. En doordat we van de oogst een mooie buitenactiviteit maken, waar velen van jullie bij geweest zijn, is het arbeidsintensieve karakter van de oogst geen probleem maar een mooie ervaring!

On tap at Proeflokaal Arendsnest, pours a hazy blonde with a tiny white head. Aroma is full of dry apple skins and some wild notes. Flavour is buggy, with dry apple skins, and a hint of funk. Not the funkiest; the tartness is pleasant but a bit apple core-y. Decent.

330ml bottle. Pours a hazed golden yellow. Aroma of sweet apple pie filling. Flavour profile seems to produce a desert apple sweetness, apple pie, some fleeting vanilla moments, waxy elements, distant wild notes. Ok.

Can at Free Beer opening party. Bit hazy yellow. Funky apple, light lemon and mint, unripe green fruit, kumquat. Medium sour, light sweet. OK but not great, quite funky but lacks rannins.
