Seattle Cider Co. launches Grapefruit Cider

Seattle Cider Company is launching a seasonal Grapefruit hard cider flavor that's 6.5% and available on draft and in 16oz cans. Seattle Cider is calling it a juicy cider bursting with fresh grapefruit aroma. It's slightly sweet with a subtle bite and a crisp, effervescent finish.

More from a press release:

“Our cider team took our time getting the liquid just right,” said Scott Katsma, Director of Fermentation at Seattle Cider Company. “Ultimately, its everything we wanted in a grapefruit cider; we’re incredibly pleased with the result.”

Fermented on real grapefruit and white wine yeast, Seattle Cider Grapefruit comes in at 6.5 ABV and just 1.8 Brix. It’s a crisp, dry, and tart cider beautifully balanced with a touch of brown sugar.

Seattle Cider Grapefruit cans will be available in 16oz 4-packs. The Grapefruit seasonal cider is expected to hit shelves starting late January to mid-February everywhere Seattle Cider products are widely available. Additionally, Seattle Cider Grapefruit will also be available in 1/6- and 1/2-barrel kegs.
