Ace Apple Hard Cider

This week has been a bit more relaxed, and thankfully we had time to sit back and enjoy this new cider. But our busy lives aren't what you're here to read about, our Cider Adventures are!

Ace Apple Hard Cider is brought to us by California Cider Co out of Sebastapol, California. It racks up at 5% alcohol by volume. California Cider Co has this to say, "Ace Apple Cider is a premium hard cider made in the heart of Sonoma County's apple orchards. Unlike most other cider brands, Ace is fermented from only pure apple juice. This gives the cider its fresh natural apple taste… Enjoy this alternative to beer or wine."



Mr. Rob isn't as wordy this week, he's getting straight to the point. What did he say, you ask? Oh, fine, twist my arm. Here it is:
To me, this is as close as it gets to a stereotypical cider. It's not very sweet so it has a rich full bodied taste. It's fairly tart and doesn't linger on the tongue to long after your sip. The only draw back is I slight hint of iron as you sip away. Either way, this cider gets a 3 of a kind!

And little ol' me. Finally, a cider that doesn't taste like water! Ace Apple Cider reminds me of a very flavorful dark red apple. It's got a bit of a tart flavor at the end that hits right in the back of your mouth. This one is much heavier than the other ciders we've been trying lately, which is an awesome change of pace. It does have a little bit of an iron taste to it, though. Ace, you're not high or low today, but you're right in the middle at 3 apples.

And, hey! It's not minutes before midnight this week! See, I told you it wouldn't be as late. You thought I was bluffing...

In the next few weeks we're hoping to have some guests give us their perspective on ciders, so keep your eyes peeled for that! I hope you enjoyed our silly little puns. We're so punny. Eh? Eh? Fine, I fold.

Once again, Happy Tasting!

  1. You should try Ace Perry (pear) Cider. It's my favorite!

    1. Thanks for the suggestion, Simon House! We will have to check that one out. For the flavor Ace Apple Cider had, we're hopeful that the pear cider is on the same level.
