Shared Universe: Defy Empire

This Shared Universe collaboration tastes like our classic Cloud City, but with a twist. Inspired by Lamp’s use of Stratta hops, we dumped a figurative ton into our cider. Strata hops are known to be bright and tropical hops that end with light bittering notes. We knew that we would be using a blended mix of fermented and unfermented passion fruit, strawberry, orange zest, and vanilla; ingredients that trick the taste buds into thinking they are sampling a sweet flavor. By utilizing the bitterness of Strata hops, we were able to create a balanced fruity dry cider.?
