UWE Cider&Ales

Heavy Apple presents a robust and rustic sensory profile, defined by its maturation in oak barrels and its unfiltered, farm-driven character. This Specialty Cider delivers an intense aromatic bouquet of earthy, bruised apple skins and seasoned wood. On the palate, the blend’s nearly dry structure is balanced by a sturdy body and sharp, exciting acidity that cuts through the rich, tannic depth provided by the oak. The experience is complex and unrefined, showcasing a harmonious marriage between raw fruit expression and the subtle spice of timber. It concludes with a lingering, crisp finish that emphasizes its traditional, bold heritage.

Appearance. Straw to deep gold color (SRM 3-6); hazy to opaque due to its unfiltered nature; very low head retention with minimal lacing, typical of still or lightly sparkling ciders.

Aroma. High intensity; dominant aromas of ripe, earthy apples and fermenting fruit; distinct woody notes from oak barrels including light vanillin and toasted timber; sharp acidic edge with subtle funk and no hop character.

Taste. Initial impression is sharply tart; robust apple flavors ranging from fresh juice to dry skins; noticeable wood-derived tannins providing structure; high malic and lactic acidity; nearly dry finish with no residual sugar cloying; lingering earthy and tannic aftertaste.

Mouthfeel. Medium-full body with a textured, slightly viscous feel from being unfiltered; moderate carbonation; noticeable alcohol warmth integrated at 6.5%; moderate astringency from oak aging; no creaminess.
