This "Apfelwein" is a popular brew at a brewing message board that I've been spending a bit of time on. It's very similar to an alcoholic apple cider, but since it uses wine yeast, it finishes very dry and tart. It tastes quite a bit like wine, and packs a pretty good punch.
INGREDIENTS
- 5 Gallons TreeTop Apple Juice
- RedStar Montrachet Wine Yeast (5 oz)
- 2 lbs. Dextrose Monohydrate
Force Carbonation @ 40°F & 28psi for 2 days.

ABV: 8.0%

This stuff is WAY better than I ever would have expected. I just made a second batch after trying my first batch. I really should have made more of this... This 5 gallons will have to last the next 6 months.
