Crabby McCrabface takes no prisoners and is not here to make you feel comfortable. While the flavor of a crab apple is unappreciated in it's fruity form, it makes some of the most interesting juice for fermentation. Lots of acid, lots of tannin, and a lot of flavor. Dolgo Crab Apples are about an inch in diameter and dark garnet. When we press the juice, it comes out deep ruby. Through fermentation it changes to a rich copper. The flavor is intense. You will feel that tartness climb into your scalp. Full-bodied with light carbonation, flavors reminiscent of pineapple, and earthy funky tannin in the finish. Alcohol by volume: 6.5% Volume: 500ml Carbonation: lightly carbonated Apples: Dolgo Crab from SLO Creek Farm in San Luis Obispo, CA Cases: 6 Pairings: Tri-tip with salsa, a pipe or cigar, salted caramel pot-de-creme, blue cheese Label art by Sybil Lamb, @6ybillamb
