Sunday is the Superbowl and our Patriots are on the march for another trophy and set of rings. And with football comes a few tasty drinks. And no Sunday necessitates fine libations more than the Superbowl. We have some great beer sales going on right now in honor of the games which you should come and check out, but while you are here on Sunday we will also have the knowledgeable Ken Zuckerman here to pour out some of the most unique ciders in the store.
Spain has two regions for cider, Asturias and Basque, both in the north. While Basque sidras have a good name in the United States, Asturias produces the bulk of the countries sidras. Ken will be pairing select sidras from Asturias with some delicious artisan chocolates. He will be pouring two sparkling sidras, Riesta Guzman and Angelon. You might remeber these from when he did a tasting last time. While made of apples, these can easily replace any sparkling wine. Diamantes de Hielo by Grusifas is ice cider with a deep amber color. A great desert drink. Finally we will do a fan favor Sidra de Pera from Angelon.
We have begun our move to favoring local ciders and Harvard Cider Co. is one of the closest to the store. These guys haven’t been around for a long time, but they have already begun to establish a strong foothold throughout the state. We have been proud to carry a brand of cider that utilizes the orchards that can be found throughout this area. On November 19th, 2-4pm, Harvard Cider will be here pouring out their goods. Anchor is their straight forward cider that is at the heart of their brand. Paradise has been steeped with orange peel and grains of paradise. Missing Link has been dry hopped to add a bitter, hoppy bite. Harvard’s experimentation has produced ciders that deserve to make it into your cart. But just to give you that extra push, if need, we will be selling 4 packs of each of these ciders for $8.99, with the sale beginning for the tasting. Come out to check out the local cider makers and bring home some cider for your Thanksgiving or just everyday drinking.
Some of the most unique and flavorful ciders we have in stock, Rekorderlig is a Swedish treat. With flavors like Wild Berry, Strawberry Lime, and Passionfruit, if you haven’t tried these ciders, you really should. You won’t be upset with me for recommending this one. Saturday 3-5pm. PLEASE NOTE THE CHANGE IN START TIME!
