The Cider Brothers create true craft ciders, produced from a five-apple blend of fresh juice from Golden Russet, Gala, Fuji, Red Delicious and Granny Smith apples. The Cider Brothers do not use apple or pear concentrate, one of the traits that separate their ciders from the mass-market brands produced by the large brewers and cider companies.
Their Pinot Grigio Hard Apple Cider is produced using 15% California Pinot Grigio with their freshly fermented apple cider, adding a unique dimension of flavor complexity, body, and food compatibility.
