Merridale Champagne Style Somerset

Brewed by Merridale Estate Cidery
Style: Cider
Cobble Hill, Canada

Liked this one a lot when i tried it at the Great Canadian Beer Festival. Found it to be far more full-bodied and interesting than the House Cider from Merridale. Would love to try this from the bottle or tap!

(Druaght) Sampled at the cidery. Pours a dry apple nose with a brown sugar hint. Flavour is finely crafted with local tart apples and a refined sugary finish. Being a supporter of champagne-style ciders, I knew I’d like this one. Very good.

Hazy beige-yellow colour. Aroma is of apple skins, hint of brown sugar and sulphite. Soft and bubbly, with a rounded apple flavour, sweet edge and only a hint of alcohol coming in late, this is probably the most accessible but also the best-crafted Merridale’s product yet.
