Leprechaun

Recently on our podcast "The Beer Party Show", which you can catch almost every week at http://thebeerpartyshow.podomatic.com, we sampled the up and coming Leprechaun Cider. I was lucky enough to meet the owner himself recently and was so impressed by everything he stood for that I gave it a shot.

The words "Artificial, and concentrate" were used as if they were naughty and so I went on to test this theory.

Leprechaun Cider is by far the most delicious cider I have ever had. I do enjoy ciders from time to time, and consumed many of the well known brands (Ace, Crispin, Woodchuck), and while these are all delicious in their own way, they still lacked the authenticity that Leprechaun puts forth.

Using Cider apples instead of dessert apples was quite an important step in the making of the cider, and the lack of any apple juice concentrate made a world of difference. Many more techniques were used to make this cider what it is, and once again... cider is GLUTEN FREE for those of you that can't take the awesomeness that is malts.

In the end, if you enjoy ciders... or hell, if you enjoy a fine champagne... buy a bottle and give it a try yourself. I highly doubt you will be disappointed.
