Yarra Valley Hard Cider

Louis Hard Cider by Napoleone Brewery
ABV: 4.5% 355ml

We take a very one-eyed approach to what makes great cider. Good apples hand picked from our Napoleone Orchard in the Yarra, then straight up, cold-crushed. That’s about it.

No added sugar. No concentrate. No nonsense.

Crushed from a single pick of our 2020 harvest of Yarra Valley apples, steeped on skins for 24 hours, then plunged head-first to seasoned barrels to naturally ferment.

This brew is more savoury than its bottled stablemates, thanks to regular lees stirring, lending mouthfeel and complexity.​

In a nutshell, the Louis Hard Cider delivers a thirst quenching, cool-climate fruit flavour, with the funk and texture that comes from 30 years of hard graft in the Yarra.
