Angry Orchard: Elderflower

Mike LangBeer

When it comes to cider, Angry Orchard's Apple Ginger is a favorite of mine, and even more so for Zoë and the Backyard Brewer's better halves.  Now comes word there is yet another style to try, Elderflower.  

“For centuries, elderflower has been used as an ingredient because of its delicate floral notes. It also has a great fruity flavor reminiscent of tropical fruits like lychee, pear and citrus, which makes it a great match for the rich, fruity flavors found in the culinary and bittersweet apples we use in our cider,” said David Sipes, Cider Maker for Angry Orchard. “This combination of flavors produces a complex yet balanced, slightly sparkling cider we think is unlike anything our drinkers have experienced.”

Needless to say, I'm intrigued.  Elderflower is available now, nationwide.
