Bramble Bubbly

Too sweet, tastes like juice. BlackBerry flavor in the finish

Bottle pour at Cider Summit Seattle 2015. Semi-sweet. My sample didn’t have much if any carbonation, so I missed out on the “bubbly” part, but it was the end of the bottle. Lovely berry/rosé color but the blackberry flavor was a bit underwhelming and sorta standard. Some tartness. Overall it was disappointing…I had really been looking forward to trying this one (its difficult to find this side of the border and I’d always rather taste something than commit to a bottle, especially when its in that $20 price range for a 750ml). I will say that it hid the alcohol very well though (its almost 10% ABV), and was well-crafted. I really love their Prohibition, but that is a completely different flavor profile!
