It’s not every day a 9% ABV cider (or beer, for that matter) gets added to the year-round lineup, but that’s what 2 Towns did with Tropical Mayhem. Tropical Mayhem – Imperial Passionfruit Pineapple Cider If you like key lime pie, this is one to look for when it comes back around. Overall: Really good, fresh and bright and almost dessert-like. Mouthfeel: Light, semi-petillant, quite clean, with a sweet and lightly apple-y aftertaste. Really nice and clean with a burnt sugar and lime sweetness (think broiled grapefruit). Taste: Bright, sweet in a key lime pie (curd) direction, refreshing and lightly tart in a juicy way that makes the apple pop. Smell: Gentle lime zestiness over a caramel-sweet note, with a subtle fresh fruity character that’s almost spicy. Lightly bubbly with slow but steady bubbles. Truly every sip is like going on the vacation we all wish we were on right now.Īppearance: Clear, bright gold color. The profile is business up front and a party in the back, with a pop of sweet agave and apple flavor that cuts at the end to a deliciously sharp citrus tang. One whiff and you suddenly find yourself lazily sitting in the shade of a hot, sandy beach with emerald waves leisurely rolling their way to shore. With an exceptionally aromatic profile, the fresh-pressed apple juice blends beautifully with the agave and lime aromas. This lime-ited release is sure to help make your next summertime adventure your best one yet!Īnd for a bit more, here’s a longer pull from the press release: It was an easy-drinking 5.6% ABV and the website description reads:įresh & Tangy, let the Good Limes Roll with this easy-drinking cider crafted with fresh-pressed apples, key lime & organic blue agave. Good Limes Roll was included in the package I received from the cidery over the summer that included the aforementioned mead and wine. I’ve got a number of reviews for the cidery in the queue, but for this post I’m focusing on two of 2 Towns’ fruited ciders released this year-the first a limited summer seasonal, the other a new year-round cider.įrankly, both were just excellent, super drinkable ciders, and it feels like 2 Towns has really perfected the “cider with other fruit” concept. The Corvallis, Oregon cider maker has rolled out several new ciders in 2020, not to mention picking up Nectar Creek Mead and partnering on a canned wine. Please recycle.OctoBy Jon Abernathy | Filed in Cider, ReviewsĢ Towns Ciderhouse is on a roll this year, and that’s only a little bit pun intended (see first review). This time intensive process retains the natural character and delicate aromatics of the apples, eliminating the need for additives, which plainly fall short. No Shortcuts: Our cider is always slow fermented at cold temperatures. Whole Ingredients: Made from 100% fresh-pressed Northwest apples, sourced exclusively from local Oregon & Washington farms, as well as other whole, locally harvested agricultural ingredients. Boldly Crafted in Oregon: Pioneering Northwest Craft Cider since 2010. Tangy and full of ripe, rich berry notes, the Marionberry quickly became the standard to which all blackberries would forever be compared, and elevates this cider to illustrious heights. The Marion blackberry was originally bred for Marion County, Oregon farmers, right here in our backyard. Made Marion: Made Marion unites two ingredients that were destined to be together - whole, Oregon-grown Marionberries and fresh-pressed Northwest apples. The crown jewel of all blackberry varieties, Marionberries are a true testament to the bounty of Oregon. Profile: Ripe and juicy, Made Marion unites Northwest apples with whole locally grown Marionberries.
