pretty in pink

Now that spring is coming up, I felt like a little change.  Maybe a nice, light cider instead of the usual snappy ales or substantial stouts.  The Beer Garden had a selection of ciders, mostly Swedish, and I am a sucker for berry mixes.  Rekorderlig has a rather strong, sour smell, although pleasant.  It looks a bit like a rose wine, with the color and the tiny bubbles.  The taste also surprises with a sour kick at the end, but it definitely starts out sweet, like the popular Irish or British ciders of the moment.  Refreshing, definitely summery, a little sugar for energy and a little alcohol to let it out.
