We Are The Reds

Hi ya'll been meaning to put this up for awhile but have been slack but myself and a couple of mates are having a crack at making and selling cider as combined we have all the various expertise needed.

Only thing we were lacking a bit of is the $$ so we have launched a crowd funding thingy through pozible if anyones interested.

It's a rather dry cider with some funky tones to it, nothing like the sweet mainstream ciders out there.

So if it seems ya thing we would love it and be grateful if you signed up.
Cheers.... Nathan

Hells yeah.
I will donate when I can. The world needs more proper cider (and less cruddy lolly water). Have spent a year doing fieldwork talking to winemakers etc in McLaren Vale & the most important thing I've learned is that there is no more noble calling for a man than to make his own booze ...

It's actually made in the Vale by Bryn Richards from Chapel Hill.

Awesome. Never met him but makes some cracking wines!

As a man down South I wholeheartedly will endorse this project when I have money

Swung $20 at you, I might put in an order for a case too! Feels like cider weather out there right now...

Wow you guys raised a good amount of coin.

congrats ill have to order some and give it a taste. Im a big fan of supporting local entrepreneur's and business as opposed to the cooporate heavy's.

Gotta say I was able to try one of these on the weekend and really enjoyed it. Goes the against the current trend of sickly sweet ciders and has a really nice dry, rustic almost mild spicy ginger ale flavour. Will be getting my hands on a carton or two.

Took delivery of 12 bottles of your finest today Flavze, reeeeeally looking forward to cracking the first one!

... and it did not disappoint!
Really excellent stuff.

My dad got a carton for me today, will be smashing one or two tonight when I get home from work!

Where can we buy ? both online and retail outlets ?:)

I just got some Cisk in the mail today ( direct from malta ) , epic day to receive my favourite beer.

My dad got it through a friend who has connections to the Flavell's but you can buy online here:

sweet next weeks drink of choice !!

Im completely ignorant to Cider, anyone care to educate me about cider ?

its not something you can really leave in on the shelf gathering dust is it ?

Just at a guess I would think some ciders (the proper, cloudy farmhouse ones) would suit ageing better than others. Like beer, most is probably best drunk fresh but some might age well (a la some of the Coopers beers). Best ask Flavze though!

There is a Cider festival on in Hindmarsh Square this weekend, that would be the place to learn more about it...

hopefully there will be a good representation of small & local producers there
