Fermented Hard Apple Cider

[DaisyM]

Where can I buy this in Philly? I'm looking for a bottled apple cider like we would get at crepe places in France. It comes in a wine bottle and has fizz. I struck out at the state store. Thank you!

Today's Inquirer has a pretty good article on hard ciders including names of some local brewers as well as retail outlets. Worth looking at.

Monk's and Eulogy carry this type of cider, and I believe they both have take out licenses.

Eulogy also has an American version in a 16 oz. bottle that's very good.

The state store in Garces Trading Co had a GREAT bottle last year - I think it was from Spain. Dry and delicious!

I forgot about Garces Trading Co. I struck out at the beer distributor. But we are going to NYC in a couple of weeks and found a place that has a selection from France. We had brought back a couple of bottles from France and it was really nice to serve at Thanksgiving

Daisy you are unlikely to find it at a beer distributor where they sell things in cases. I have seen good dry cider at the Foodery, which is a specialty beer bottleshop.

Last month had a delicious cider on tap, served from a cask at the Gingerman in Manhattan. Well worth a trip if you have never been.

Also Hawthorne's on 11th and Beer Heaven on Columbus Blvd at Washington

Thanks, Gingerman sounds great. This is the place that we're going to do some shopping. http://www.astorwines.com/SearchResul...

It is sold with beers. Try the foodery in Philadelphia, either location. Alternatively I know that it is served at certain restaurants, including Beau Monde which is just off South Street.
