Piney Pete (apples)

strong yet nimble, goofy yet composed, intimidating yet gentle, witty and detailed and giving and unforgettable. Piney Pete: not static, not AI; a bit unpredictable but in that lies the magic...a cider hero! This sparkling beverage has some real good acid on it but won't remove your teeth enamel. There is a delicate touch of smokey/mezcal vibes complimented by some mild elements of cheese. Much along the lines of a proper English cider or quite possibly a dry one from Normandy. It's close to the edge but never a worry of going over.
