Our Thoughts
Today we have "Woodchuck Winter" which is a Fruit Cider that could be compared to a Semi Light Scottish Ale. With an ABV of 5 this beer sits just under the average. This is a beer for those who are tired of light lagers and want something with a little bit of a kick. You will still find a nice crisp taste but a higher IBU profile makes for a great drink.
Fruit Cider
Like a dry wine with complex flavors. The apple character must marry with the added fruit so that neither dominates the other.
What does ABV/IBU mean?
ABV
ABV stands for Alcohol By Volume and is listed as a percentage and lets you know how much of your beer is alcohol and how much is other stuff.
IBU
stands for International Bitterness Units measures the bitterness from hops in a beer on a scale of 0 to 100.
Beer Fact of the Day
The Babylonians were one of the first cultures to start brewing beer. To keep the quality of the commercial brews up, a law was passed that if your beer was seen as unfit or inferior, you were sentenced to drown in it.
