Two Broads Ciderworks - Elvis Legs Ice Cider
Elvis Legs is a happy accident of an Ice Cider. From Two Broads: "full disclosure, we meant to make Chez Baco, but the wrong juice came out of storage. Rather than send it back, we just went with it. We thank Shelly so much for helping us with the name Elvis Legs (another contender was Nanners). This cider definitely has legs, but Elvis? Well... why not Elvis?"
An Ice Cider is a dessert style cider made famous in Quebec. After pressing the juice from local Gala apples, it is frozen. Pure ice crystals are the first to freeze and the last to thaw, making the first 25% of the juice to melt more concentrated with sugar, flavor and acidity than the original juice. After a slow fermentation, the cider was aged in Calvados (French apple brandy) barrels for a year.

About Two Broads Ciderworks: Maggie, a biologist and gardener, and Morgan, a home brewer and engineer, met as students. They fell in love, and many of their mutual interests began to align. Maggie learned more about beer and how to homebrew. Morgan learned about local flora and fauna and gardening. As they explored California's San Luis Obispo county, they happened upon See Canyon Cider, and in its beautiful orchards discovered they loved heirloom apples. They made their first hard cider with the juice pressed from See Canyon apples. Fast forward to the present. Morgan and Maggie have committed their lives to each other and to making great cider for their community. Their goal: to source local fruit to make delicious ciders in San Luis Obispo, to promote the appreciation of good cider, and to nurture the growth of heirloom cider apple production locally.
