Progression Triple Omen

Triple Omen is a cider from PROGRESSION. The product details don't list an ABV, apple varieties, sweetness level or flavor additions, so the tasting notes below describe what the category usually offers, not a measured profile of this bottling. Check the label for the exact ABV and any ingredients. Ciders in this category usually lead with fresh apple aroma, with acidity doing the work that bitterness does in beer. Expect a crisp, tart edge and a moderate to light body. Sweetness varies a lot from one cider to the next, from bone-dry to off-dry. Dry versions can show a faint tannic grip, something like apple skin or black tea, while sweeter ones lean toward baked apple or pear. Carbonation is normally lively, which helps the acidity feel clean. Serve it cold, around 4 to 7°C (40 to 45°F). Colder than that mutes the apple character, and a cider that has warmed up can taste flat and syrupy. A tulip or stemmed beer glass keeps the aroma gathered and shows off the bubbles. A pint glass or a simple tumbler also works if you're pouring something casual and fruit-forward. Pour gently and leave any sediment in the bottle or can, unless the label says it's unfiltered. For food, cider's acidity and carbonation suit rich, salty or fatty dishes. Roast pork, bratwurst, sharp cheddar, washed-rind cheeses, fried chicken and pan-seared fish are all good matches. A drier cider also holds up against mildly spicy dishes, such as Thai curries or Mexican-style pork.
