One day back in 1993, Chris Turton drove 590 kilometers from Kelowna to Calgary, to show Ed McNally some apples. As soon as he surveyed the apples, Ed saw the possibilities. Chris grows apples you don’t see in the supermarket. The fragrant, sweet and succulent European varieties grown in Chris Turton's orchards produce fine examples of classic English-style cider apples. At the end of that meeting Ed and Chris shook hands. A year later, Big Rock's first cider was in the keg.

    Aroma: 8 | Appearance: 7 | Mouthfeel: 7 | Flavor: 7 | Overall: 7

    4 pack of 355ml orange cans, brought as a gift. "Made Naturally, in the Okanagan" on the shoulder, Big Rock Brewery, Calgary, Alberta, clearly stated on the label. Served chilled. Pours a very light yellow color, as expected for a cider. Large, frothy white head, leaves this sheets of lacing. Smell is classic apple cider, maybe a touch metallic. Flavor of tart apples and white wine. Alcohol seems well hidden. Mouthfeel is very crisp and dry, and cuts the sweet, sugary finish present in other ciders. I found it more tart, and not as sweet as Strongbow.
