Malner

Malner Auster is a bright and approachable New World Cider that balances its medium-sweet profile with a crisp, refreshing acidity. At 4.8% ABV, it presents a bouquet of fresh-pressed dessert apples and delicate floral esters, reflecting its craft origins. The palate is defined by a clean, juicy apple character with a sweetness that rounds out the mouthfeel without becoming cloying. A lively carbonation enhances the vibrant fruit notes, leading to a smooth, thirst-quenching finish that emphasizes pure fruit expression over tannic structure or complexity. It is an exceptionally balanced and approachable example of modern cidermaking.

Appearance. Pales gold to yellow in color (SRM 2-4). Brilliant clarity with a thin, white head of large bubbles that dissipates rapidly. Moderate to high effervescence with steady carbonation trails.

Aroma. Moderate to high intensity of fresh, ripe apple juice. Clean fermentation character with low fruity esters and no detectable phenols, sulfur, or acetic acid. Very low floral notes are present, with no hop or malt character.

Taste. Initial impression is of sweet, juicy apples followed by a balancing acidity. Malt and hop flavors are absent. The apple flavor is clean and reminiscent of culinary varieties. Medium-sweet finish that is not syrupy; aftertaste is short and clean, echoing fresh fruit. Bitterness is non-existent (0 IBU).

Mouthfeel. Medium body with a smooth, slightly syrupy texture from residual sugar. High carbonation provides a tingling, refreshing prickle on the tongue. No alcohol warmth or astringency from tannins is perceived.
