cider

This is dave White’s Blue Cap Cider, I believe he told me it was a Jonah Gold Blend (or was that Single Origin Jonah Gold). Update: Turns out this batch of cider is a blend of Jonathon and Golden.

Once again nicely done Dave! Very clear, almost zero sediment in the bottle.

Notes: Opened and Consumed on 05/12/2008

  • Aroma: A little yeasty (not unpleasant, just more so than the Red Cap Blend), and that of crisp light apples; delicate.
  • Flavor: Yeasty, lime, apple crisp, dry with an underlying sweetsness (not so much sweet as the idea of sweet), crisp and clean.
  • Overall Thoughts: I need more than 12 oz. Refreshing. Nothing bad, the Yeasty flavors not unpleasent, and may pass with little more age in the bottle. Better than most commercial “hard” ciders. The predominant flavor I remember back on is the Lime! Simple, or rather not complex. dig it!

A nice finish to a long day.

Thanks for sharing Dave.
