An exciting announcement coming from Crispin Cider. Crispin will be packaging their cider in 3-Liter boxes:
(Colfax, Calif. – Sept. 10, 2012/mbb/) -- Since its launch in 2008, Crispin Cider Company has become famous for it's innovative takes on 100 percent fermented, fresh-pressed apple and pear hard ciders,and for its outside-the-box thinking. But for its latest introduction, the hard cider maker is thinking inside the box –- introducing boxed hard cider from Crispin.
“We know that cider drinkers are wine drinkers, and vice-versa, so in many ways cider is the ultimate ‘bridge’ beverage between beer and wine –- the beer for wine drinkers and the wine for beer drinkers,” said Joe Heron, president and CEO, Crispin Cider Company. “Our boxed ciders reflect that connection in a fun and delicious way.”
Each box contains three liters of cider, equivalent to four bottles of wine. Once opened and stored in the fridge, they will stay fresh for about four weeks.
