Alkmene 2020 est un cidre danois qui célèbre les saveurs vives et joyeuses des pommes Alkmene. Ce cidre en édition limitée de To Øl rend hommage au printemps, en mariant une seule variété de pomme à une macération à froid sur des fleurs de sureau pour un caractère délicat et floral.
Cracked this open on a sunny afternoon and the single-variety Alkmene apples really come through — bright, crisp, and almost floral. It's a limited release, so I'm already wishing I'd grabbed a second bottle while it was available.
The apple flavor here is surprisingly delicate, not tart like most ciders, and it finishes incredibly clean. I grabbed a bottle to celebrate the first warm day and it nailed that fresh, spring feeling perfectly. If you can still find it, it’s worth trying before it’s gone.
Opened this on a sunny afternoon and the cold fermentation really lets the single Alkmene apple shine through—crisp, bright, and not too sweet. It's a limited release so I'm already sad I only grabbed two bottles, but that first sip was pure spring.
