Mr. Blue Sky presents an evocative marriage of rustic, spontaneous fermentation and vibrant fruit. This Cider with Other Fruit opens with a punchy, deep berry essence supported by the earthy, barnyard complexity characteristic of wild ferments. The blueberries contribute both a rich, jammy essence and a sharp, tannic structure that balances the crisp apple base. At 7.5% ABV, it carries a sophisticated presence, blending the tartness of forest fruits with a bone-dry, acidic finish. It is a nuanced expression of terroir, where the natural cultures provide a funky, vinous backdrop to the bold, indigo fruit profile.
Appearance.Deep ruby to dark indigo-purple; clear to slightly hazy. Very light, fast-fading effervescent head with a pinkish tint; minimal lacing.
Aroma.High intensity. Prominent fresh blueberry and skin-like tannins mixed with tart green apple. Distinct wild character including hay, horse blanket, and a sharp lactic acidity. Subtle floral esters.
Taste.Initial sharp tartness of blueberry and malic apple acid. Mid-palette reveals earthy, funky spontaneous fermentation notes and a light woodiness. No hop bitterness. Finishes very dry and crisp with a lingering berry-skin astringency and a clean, acidic snap.
Mouthfeel.Medium-light body with a vinous, mouth-watering quality. High carbonation provides a lively, tingling sensation. A light, pleasant warmth from the alcohol is present but well-integrated.
