Woodchuck Day 2015



Will we have 6 more weeks of winter or is spring on its way? Traditionally, only the shadow of one groundhog can tell us for sure. No matter the outcome, one thing is for certain, it’s always the right time for a good cider, plus it’s a bit more interesting. This is why February 2nd has been dubbed Woodchuck Day by our friends at Woodchuck Hard Cider.


To celebrate, Woodchuck is sponsoring a brand new badge for you to unlock as we wait to see the outcome of our furry, forecasting friend. Check-in to three (3) Woodchuck Ciders (any style) between January 8th and February 6th to unlock the “Woodchuck Day 2015” badge. While you’re at it, grab some friends and swing by one of the many Woodchuck Day events happening around the country. You can get more details at http://ift.tt/145Mb8Z.

Bartlett Perry - via AHA

Source 10 gallons of fresh pear cider. “I sulfited to 50 ppm SO2 and adjusted the acidity to 6 g/liter with malic acid. This year I fermented with Lalvin DV-10, a Champagne-type yeast. I have used 11-22B and Ba-11 in the past with good results. I used Fermax slit into two additions, and fermented at 60° F (16° C). Following fermentation to dryness, I added sorbate, back-sweetened with cane sugar to taste, fined with Super-Kleer KC, and filtered. This perry was keg-carbonated at 2.8 vol. CO2.”


Primary Fermentation for two weeks at 60° F (16° C).


Forced CO2 to carbonate (2.8 vol).
