BARREL-AGED DRY CIDER

Believed to reside in the orchard’s oldest tree, the Apple Spirit is feted each year to ensure a bountiful harvest the next. Songs are sung, evil spirits scared off by noisy revellers, and cider is poured on the tree’s roots to reawaken it. Raise a glass of this tart, structured cider – made with new world Heirloom apple varieties – to the apple tree’s prosperity.

BREWER’S NOTES

Made with New World heirloom apple varieties, Oberon was aged in French Oak barrels for nearly one year. The result is a complex, dry, earthy, and slightly funky cider. The use of the heritage apple varietal Winesap brings structure and character. All apples were harvested from our orchardist in Cawston BC. 

APPLES Winsap / Pink Lady
