A Sprig + Fern classic which has won Bronze and Silver Medal at many NZ Brewers Guild Awards! A combination of three fresh berry fruits – boysenberries, strawberries and blackcurrants – gives our Berry Cider a deep plum colour and a lovely mouth-watering appeal. Moderately carbonated and rich in fruit content with an apple base, it is flavoursome, delicious and refreshing. A hit with both men and women!

Brewmaster’s Comments

Our Berry Cider is tremendously popular with men and women alike. It has an apple cider base, and we haven’t scrimped on the addition of the fruit, so it’s packed with real berry fruit flavour. Our Berry Cider is extremely easy drinking and quite moreish. Beware however, as it is 4.5% ABV!

Tasting Notes
