Review: Hornsbys Hard Crisp Cider

by Jeff Ellingson

hornsbys hard crispHornsbys Hard Crisp Cider updated their packaging and recipe November 2013.  This comes two years after E&J Gallo sold Hornsbys to the C&C Group.  The C&C Group is the Irish parent of many cider brands including Magners and more recently Woodchuck.  Hornsby’s was the number two selling cider in the US when they were acquired, but they have seen their market share fall under increased competition, so a change was needed.  After moving production from California to the Vermont home of Woodchuck Cider it appears Hornsby’s may now be made in Ireland as their new label states that it is imported by WM Magner Inc.The aroma is apples and yeast.  It pours to a lightly carbonated bright golden color.  The flavor is crisp apple building to more of a tanginess than tart peak.  I also pick up some banana notes before a semi dry finish.  Comparing the new recipe to their original I find the original had more of a bold apple taste and was slightly more carbonated.  The new recipe has a dryer cleaner finish absent the bittersweet and lightly overripe finish of the original.
