Cider Crate Tasting Notes:

Smell: Medium aroma. Bright smooth hops. Light tannic apples.  Some acidity.  
Initial Taste: Medium bite from carbonation. Smooth and semi-creamy hops that have a slightly tropical/lychee/starfruit element to it.  Apple is bright but also approachable. Excellent fermentation notes.
After Taste: Long lingering with a smooth finish.  Somewhat nutty and earthy in the finish.  Some fermentation elements and slightly saline aspects.
On ice: Minimal change, tiny bit less carbonation.

Additional Notes:  A smooth hopped offering, the La cidrerie d’un hectare Jumelé is quite unique.  Tropical-like hops are approchable and bright and come across as tropical and starfruit-like. And it’s blended with a pretty cloudy and traditional apple that’s semi-soft but with some uplifting elements.  Finishes earthier with a bit of salt, lots to enjoy.
