Bivouac Ciderworks Releases Draft-favorite Savoy English Pub Apple Cider in 16oz Cans in Tribute to the British Cider-Drinking Tradition
SAN DIEGO — Indulge your inner Anglophile with San Diego cider pioneer Bivouac Ciderworks’ first-ever can release of the popular Savoy English pub apple cider in 16oz cans. The pub-style cider, one of the cidery’s very first and most-loved draft releases, honors the British cider-drinking tradition. Bivouac Co-founder and CEO Lara Worm’s formative years were spent studying and spending time with her English family “across the pond” and it’s where she first discovered an affinity for cider. Savoy, a drier version of the classic drink you’ll find in every neighborhood pub in London, incorporates high-quality British cider apples sourced directly from small farms in the United Kingdom. Find Savoy in single 16oz cans at retailers throughout Southern California and Arizona, including Total Wine & More, Bottlecraft, and the cidery’s San Diego taproom in North Park. Plus, on draft at exclusive accounts in San Diego,Los Angeles, Orange County and Arizona.
The fresh package release was inspired by the Bivouac Ciderworks team’s recent UK pilgrimage to visit the farms where Bivouac’s cider apples are grown and to learn technique and tradition from English cidermakers. Bivouac’s signature blend of apple juice features Dabinett apples, a traditional English bittersweet cider apple variety that originates from Somerset, England and is widely regarded as the finest cider apple in the world. The fruit has a perfect balance of acid and tannins producing the complex flavors and mouthfeel Bivouac is known for.Bivouac’s apple juice is sourced from apples grown on Stocks Farm, a woman-led 200-year-old hop and apple farm in Western England. Bivouac is proud to partner with small producers that align with the cidery’s values and mission to build community, respect the environment, and bring great tasting cider to a wider audience. The newest addition to Bivouac’s lineup is best enjoyed with a hearty meal and dry humour.
