[Regia-NA] Info on halbier or halbi, Viking Normand Apple pea r breuvage?

[Pete James]

Hi

The term "scrumpy" can be used in more than one sense and mean =
different
things to different people, but mainly it means cider made more or less
entirely from apples using traditional methods.

This basically means that the juice is extracted from the apples =
(preferably
proper cider apples; although good cider can be made using other types =
of
apple) and then fermented naturally, usually without anything else much
being added. The scrumpy is then left to mature and after a while will =
be
ready for the user.=20

5% alcohol by volume is not good, 8% is better and more common =
............

Good stuff.

Pete
