Snowbelt Brewing Co.'s Sneaky Pants
Bottoms Up
By Anna Faller | Nov. 30, 2024
Time to put on your party pants, people! It’s officially festive season, and the Sneaky Pants cider at Snowbelt Brewing Co. in Gaylord is a humdinger of a holiday treat. Named for the powerful punch it packs—both in flavor and ABV, which clocks in at around 7 percent—this jewel-toned beverage combines raw-pressed apple and cherry juice, sourced from King Orchards in Central Lake, apple concentrate, and a hint of pure vanilla extract. Fermented onsite in stainless steel tanks, the result is a balanced, semi-sweet sip with a fruit-forward palette and bright finish. Pair one with a plate of pretzels and beer cheese, and you’ve got yourself a real celebration. (Psst—it also comes as a slushy!) Get your sneak on ($6 per pint) at Snowbelt Brewing Co. in Gaylord (132 W. Main St.). snowbelt.beer; (989) 448-7077.
