• Cidery - Europe

    Ventons Devon Cyder

    We are a small family business producing up to 1500 gallons of award winning 100% natural apple cider each year. Our artisan approach places more emphasis on quality rather than quantity, always striving to make the best rather than the most. Using only natural yeast from the apples, every barrel tells it’s own story……. Our methods are as traditional as they get! Every weekend in October and November, friends and family turn out in all weather’s to hand pick our unsprayed vintage cider apples which are bagged, crushed and pressed a ton at a time through straw on our traditional oak twin screw press, then fermented and matured in Oak…

    Brauerei Gebr. Maisel KG

    Eine Weissbier-Tradition mit Zukunft Oscar und Hans Maisel Seit nunmehr über hundert Jahren sind die Weichen der Brauerei Gebrüder Maisel auf Zukunft gestellt. Tatsächlich spricht die beeindruckende Unternehmensgeschichte, die Entwicklung von einer Regionalbrauerei zu einer der führenden Weissbierbrauereien Deutschlands, für sich selbst. Und dabei wurden die Werte einer Familienbrauerei traditionell weiter gelebt. Weissbier-Tradition1887 wurde das Familienunternehmen von Hans und Eberhardt Maisel gegründet. Sie errichteten vor den Toren Bayreuths eine moderne Braustätte und legten so den Grundstein für das noch heute sehr erfolgreiche Unternehmen. Mitten in der Weltwirtschaftskrise der 20er Jahre übernahmen Fritz und Andreas, die Söhne der Gründerbrüder, die Führung der Brauereigeschäfte. Fritz Maisel war es aber letztendlich, der ab…

  • Meadery - North America

    Blacksnake Meadery

    Welcome to Blacksnake Meadery, Carroll County’s first winery and Southwest Virginia’s only meadery. We are a family-owned and operated business in the beautiful southern Blue Ridge mountains of Virginia. Our desire to live more closely with nature and our love of all things fermented have resulted in the establishment of our meadery. Blacksnake Meadery’s closeness with nature began with negotiations with the original reptilian inhabitants (and namesakes) of the meadery. It has since expanded to the introduction of an ever-growing population of honeybees, who produce at least half of the honey in our meads, as well as the cultivating of the numerous wild apples, crabapples, and berries on the property.…

  • Traditional Perry

    Nook’s Yard Cheshire Perry

    As far as we know, the only perry made in Cheshire from local pears. This is a traditional perry, so don’t expect it to taste like commercially produced, sweetened, fizzy “pear ciders”. Its overall flavour is more akin to traditional ciders with soft tannins. It is classed as dry, with all the sugar having fermented to alcohol, however, there is still a hint of the sweeter aroma of pears. Given the late frosts and poor summer, the traditional pear orchards suffered in 2012. This means our perry is in very limited supply and will only be available bottled this year, not draught. As with most traditional perries, this one’s slightly…

  • English Cider

    Nook’s Yard Medium Cider

    Made from the same fruit as our Nook’s Yard Dry Cider, but with a subtle sweetness – more Medium Dry than Medium Sweet. This cider will appeal to those who still want to taste the original fruit, but like something a little softer.
