Russian-made cider Eden Sin: from the Volga region with love!
Cider is an excellent compromise for those who come to a beer restaurant but do not like classic foam. The delicate, soft, sweetish flavor, which is more like a fruit beer than a beer, leaves almost no one indifferent. There are many worthy representatives in the cider family, and today we will talk about one of them — cider of Russian production Eden Sin.
Interesting facts
Eden Sin is a product of the Russian company Rebel Apple. Its creator, Alexander Ionov, started making cider in 2015, and at first it was a home production. The trademark appeared later, in 2018, and a year later the cidery got its own building in Moscow. Now Rebel Apple is the only full-cycle craft cidery in the capital.
One of the flagship varieties of Rebel Apple is considered to be Eden Sin — a sparkling unleavened unfiltered French-style apple cider. It is produced from apples grown in the orchards of the central Volga region. Thanks to a special production technology all natural sweetness of ripe fruits is preserved in the drink, which makes Eden Sin one of the most unique varieties on the Russian market.
Main characteristics
Eden Sin cider has a beautiful light golden color and expressively fruity taste, soft and at the same time rich, with a long pleasant aftertaste. The aroma of the drink has tones of winter and autumn apples, notes of yeast and baked goods with apple filling.

Beautiful season, enchanted eyes: what beers to drink in the fall
If in summer you want lightness — both in food and drink — then with the onset of the cold season, your tastes change. You need something more dense, warming from the inside, to wrap yourself in this feeling like in a plaid. We tell you what kind of beer to drink in the fall to hit both the atmosphere and the state of mind. Autumn flavor One of the most popular foamy drinks during the cold season is dark beer. Strong, full-bodied, velvety varieties like stouts and porters are just what you need for a cozy fall. For example, it could be Sans Pardon Russian Imperial Stout, with a deep, balanced flavor with notes of roasted malt, chocolate, licorice, fruit, coffee and molasses. Or Hitachino Nest Espresso Stout, dense and aromatic, brewed with espresso coffee beans and a corresponding flavor profile. Belgian strong dark ale can be an alternative to stout and porter. You can try Gulden Draak 9000 Quadruple with a dense flavor dominated by fruity tones, malt sweetness and spicy nuances of spices. Or, for example, Triporteur Full Moon 12, which tastes of roasted malt, caramel and cola. If you want something unusual, you can try L’ensemble di Montalcino barleywine. It is a strong barley beer aged in barrels from Italian wine Brunello di Montalcino. Baladin Wayan, an original spicy beer with five grains and nine spices, will also fit well into the autumn atmosphere. Where to try Autumn will be warmer if you spend it in Lambic!

I come from Germany: about the kölsch beer style
If you go to Cologne, Germany, and enter any brewery, you will be poured a small glass of light beer, very soft and drinkable. This is Kölsch, a legendary style of beer, somewhat similar to other light beers such as lagers, pilsners and ales, but unique in its own way. What is its peculiarity and how to drink kölsch properly — we will tell you in this article. Just the facts Unlike many varieties with a long history, kölsch appeared relatively recently — about 120 years ago. Its birthplace is Cologne, hence the name, which literally translates as «Cologne». Even today the city continues to preserve its heritage: only 20 breweries can brew Kölsch, and all of them are located either in Cologne itself or in its vicinity. The recipe and brewing technology are controlled by the Kölner Brauerei-Verband, an organization of Cologne brewers. However, kölsch is still brewed outside Germany, most often by small craft breweries, but unofficially. Beer with the flavor of German summer Kölsch belongs to hybrid styles, a kind of exception to the general division into lagers and ales. It is not too appropriate to compare it with other light styles: it is less bitter than German pils, not as fruity as ales, not as malty as helles. There is no single recipe for the drink. Each brewery decides for itself how much hops and malt to add. Kölsch is well-fermented, has an average strength of 4-5 degrees and a bright hop profile. The flavor of this unique beer is fresh, slightly sweet, with pronounced notes of bread, flowers, honey, spices, and grass. Minerality is present in the aftertaste. The aroma is delicate, malty, with tones of hops and fruit. Beer serving in German bars deserves special attention. It is poured into stem glasses — long low glasses with the volume of only 0.2 liters. This is explained by the fact that kölsch is quickly exhausted in the air, so it should be consumed as soon as possible. Drinking the variety ice-cold is not recommended, it is usually heated to 8-10 degrees. Looking for a place to try popular beers? Come to Lambic!
