Sometimes we crave something different, and, yes, we have been known
to stray from beer. A bold merlot with a bowl of macaroni and gravy
(aka "Red Gold"); some single-malt scotch as a nightcap; Bloody Marys;
or even the occasional pint of cider at the pub. And cider is a
different beast altogether. From the Vermont hard cider we used to
quaff back in the late '80s, to the real Scrumpy we choked on in the
'90s, to the handful we have available to us now. Original Sin Hard
Cider is one that stands out from the rest. Back in 2003, the New York
Times dubbed OS the best American cider. And apparently, it's "a
natural and refreshing alcoholic beverage made from the best apples."
But for us, the proof is in the pint.
