Farmstead Cider - Bear Necessity (12 oz)
Farmstead Cider - Bear Necessity (12 oz)
Farmstead Cider's Bear Necessity is made mostly of Honeycrisp apples (85%), plus a blend of neighborhood gleaned crabapples (15%) from Farmstead's Jackson Hole community. Aged briefly in Wyoming Whiskey barrels to bring a robust flavor and color.
About Farmstead Cider: Farmstead Cider was founded because the many decorative crab apple trees growing in backyards around the Jackson Hole community were becoming a problem. The apples on the ground would ferment and attract wildlife of all kinds to feast on these sweet treats Unfortunately, when someone steps out of their front door and sees a bear munching away on boozy apples, that can lead to a major problem for both the person and the bear. Farmstead's solution? Remove the apples! Then they discovered how wonderful many of those high-altitude crab apples are for making hard cider. Farmstead now harvests apples all around Jackson Hole, helping to protect wildlife and apple trees while making small-batch hard ciders that reflect their wild home. Farmstead's ciders are fermented to dry using wild/native yeast, often with some oak barrel aging, and without any added sulfites or any other refining agents. Natural cider. Save Bears, Drink Cider!
