Scrumpy

Quite sour cider from, improbably, southern California. Farmhouse-style, hazy, strong aroma and pungent flavor.

Sour but doesn’t burn the tongue. If there is much funk, it’s in the middle and doesn’t linger. May be tough to drink too many at one sitting.

Very sour and tart citrus-based flavor.

The pour is cloudy yellow and medium carbonation. The aroma is yeast and vinegar. The taste is dry, slightly acidic and sour with some phenolic yeast and even salt. The finish is medium to long and vinegar/sour. It has mouth feel. It’s growing on me but it not something I would actively seek out.

not the scrumpy I was expecting, sour weird taste....couldn't finish
