Cider - Fruit Cider 7 º

Lindheim Ølkompani

Cerasus is a vibrant expression of Norwegian terroir, blending a natural cider base with succulent cherries. This Fruit Cider offers an inviting bouquet of wild-fermented funk and tart red fruit. On the palate, the interplay between the crisp, tannic apple structure and the deep, slightly medicinal sweetness of whole cherries creates a complex profile. Notes of almond from cherry pits and a rustic, earthy undercurrent from the natural fermentation process add depth. The finish is strikingly dry and refreshing, characterized by a lingering malic acidity that highlights the pure fruit character and provides a clean, elegant conclusion.

Appearance. Brilliant ruby-red to deep garnet hue. Effervescent with a light pinkish foam that dissipates quickly, leaving minimal lacing. Generally clear, though a very slight natural haze may be present.

Aroma. High intensity. Prominent sour cherry aroma with hints of almond and stone fruit pit. Secondary notes of earthy apple skins and a sharp, clean malic acidity. Subtle funk from natural fermentation provides a rustic complexity.

Taste. Initial tart cherry blast followed by a structural tannic apple backbone. The cherry flavor is authentic and skinsy rather than candy-like. Moderate acidity provides a sharp, refreshing edge. Finishes bone-dry with a lingering tartness and a touch of woody complexity. Zero hop bitterness.

Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with high, sparkling carbonation. Low alcohol warmth that remains well-integrated. A light tannin-driven astringency is present, providing a crisp, palate-cleansing effect.
