If you aren’t already awake when you take a sip of Stormalong Cider‘s Light of the Sun, you undoubtedly will be after this tart and hop-fueled cider hits your palate. Northern Spy, Idared, Golden Delicious and Jonagold apples are pressed fresh then dry-hopped twice before receiving an infusion of zest from blood oranges and Ruby Red grapefruits. The zest screams “good morning” while bright Citra and pine-y Mosaic hops meld with the apple to soften the citrus bang like a warm bathrobe at dawn. Unabashedly refreshing while balancing beer-minded flavors, Light of the Sun is a thirst-quenching transition into fall.
