My Feedback:

Farmstead’s Mountain Dry looks like a cloudy and bubbly lemonade and has an acetic acid smell in the nose with a nice naturally raw apple aroma. The taste follows on from the smell and is maybe what you should expect from a farmhouse-style cider made in the Mountain West, nice and hardy. It definitely has that raw farmhouse feel with just a little bit of funky goodness often found in Spanish sidras, but doesn’t have the acid levels for a full-on scrumpy. You will get a bit of a tickle on the back of the throat though. It has a medium-to-full body with more carbonation than a traditional scrumpy. It’s right on that border of being too acidic but stops just short and remains quite drinkable. It is best after it breaths a bit and served super cold. If you want a vigorous drink that is just a tad funky but won’t knocks you out, this is really good. Like the hidden orchards nestled in a valley surrounded by mountains where it is made, it is rustic, yet refreshing.
