This vibrant Specialty Fruit Cider offers a complex interplay between tangy fruit and Belgian yeast character. Fermented with Saison Ale yeast, it presents a sophisticated profile where the sharp tartness of cranberry meets the lush, tropical sweetness of mango. The yeast contribution adds a layer of peppery spice and earthy phenols that complement the crisp apple base. At 6.9% ABV, it balances fruity sweetness with a refreshing acidity, creating a multi-dimensional drinking experience that bridges the gap between traditional cider and the rustic, spicy allure of a Belgian farmhouse ale.
Appearance.Pours a pale reddish-pink with brilliant to slightly hazy clarity. A thin, white effervescent head forms briefly before dissipating quickly, leaving minimal lacing typical of the style.
Aroma.High intensity with immediate notes of tart cranberry and sweet, tropical mango layered over a crisp apple base. The fermentation character is prominent, featuring peppery white pepper phenols and light citrus esters. No hop aroma or malt character is present.
Taste.A bright burst of tart cranberry is followed by the rounded, exotic sweetness of mango. The mid-palate reveals a dry, crisp apple character with spicy yeast notes providing peppery complexity. It lacks hop bitterness, with structure instead provided by fruit acidity and light tannins. It finishes off-dry and clean with a lingering tartness and subtle earthy spice.
Mouthfeel.Medium-light body with high, sparkling carbonation that provides a prickly sensation. A moderate alcohol warmth is present but well-integrated. A touch of fruit-derived tannin provides a slight, pleasant astringency that enhances the crisp, refreshing finish.
