Dwinell Country Ales - Almira Bittersweet Cider (16 oz)
Dwinell Country Ales - Almira Bittersweet Cider (16 oz)
Dwinell Country Ales cider program has been producing high quality, canned cider fo ra few years now - and Almira is one of our favorites each year. Almira is a French-style bittersweet cider made from Domaines, Marie Menard, Muscadet de Lense, Marin Onfroy, and St. Martin apples grown by E.Z. Orchards in Salem, OR. Fermentation occurs spontaneously, without the use of lab-grown yeast or addition of sulfites. This slowed ferment also allows for the natural sedimentation of pectin to occur without the use of lab-derived clarifying agents or application of mechanical filters. Packaged prior to the end of fermentation, resulting in a fine, natural carbonation to develop - a traditional method commonly known as pétillant natural or “pét-nat.” Notes of juicy grapefruit and fresh apple.
Freshly released in spring of 2024, this batch features 2023 season's fruit harvest. The previous year's vintage for this cider won Sip Magazine's double platinum medal for Pet Nat Ciders. This year's batch is tasting delicious - dry cider with juicy acidity and balanced bitter tannins. Flavor notes of fresh apple, lemon zest, citrus pith, and clove.
