Bearded Queen 2022
dry-hopped cider
Hops and cider is like a beard on a drag queen; an incredibly magical combination. Local apples are dry hopped with Nelson Sauvin, Enigma, and Galaxy hops just long enough to capture their aroma and flavor of citrus, gooseberry and black pepper. The result is lightly tart and without bitterness.
