A not-so-traditional beer debuts in a not-so-traditional package
Chapman’s Brewing Company announces entry into the craft market with unique ale cider
What started off as an idea at a local college football game has turned into the launch of a new craft brewery and a speedy product to market: Chapman’s American Ale Cider. Combining a love for the local area’s abundance of apples and sweet cider, along with a passion for craft beer and a need to support the local economy, Scott Ferguson – Chapman’s Brewing company founder and CEO – turned concept into reality in less than 18 months.
The result is their distinctive Ale Cider – a cider combining malted barley and cascade hops in a the brewing process to produce a sophisticated, deep amber beverage that appeals to both beer and cider drinkers. The finished product is the combination of both traditional cider making and beer brewing – crisp, slightly sweet cider with the best of the ale color, head and mouth feel.
