Join us as we release our 2020 batch Lapinette at the farm! We’ll celebrate with an early spring bonfire, seasonal snacks from our Taproom, and a special appearance from our farm rabbit, Grimes – and our new bunnies! Enjoy pints, flights, and bottles to take home of this year’s release of Lapinette.

LAPINETTE:
The way we see it, in the springtime when apples growers of Normandy see little rabbits in their orchard, they are guaranteed a bountiful harvest. The young rabbits bring good luck to the apple farmer, as they never leave their warren until after the final frost.

Our Lapinette Norman-style cidre brut is reminiscent of the old days in France, before the great wars, when wine makers of the south shared their used barels with their northern cousins. The resulting ciders were complex with a balance of flavors from the fruit, the farm, and the barrel. Virtue has recreated this traditional cider by sourcing tart fruit and patiently aging for months in French oak barrels. Lapinette offers a complex nose of both the farm and the barrel, with a refreshingly dry, mineral finish.
