Ciders
Cider is made like wine, as both are fermented fruit juices, but it is often consumed and marketed more like beer due to its typically lower alcohol content and carbonation.
The focus in cider making, like winemaking, is on expressing the unique flavors of the fruit, using methods like wild yeast fermentation to add complexity
Its production involves fermenting pressed fruit juice, similar to the fermentation process for grapes in winemaking, while its alcohol levels are more comparable to beer's
While both beer & cider are fermented beverages, beer is made from malted barley, while cider is made from apples. This results in different flavour profiles and characteristics. Beer often has a more bitter and hoppy taste, while cider tends to be sweeter and fruitier.
