At least he won't ask for more.

Stepping out of your comfort zone and trying something that may not sound appealing at first, is probly how brewing got going in the first place! Maybe you might surprise yourself if you "tried something different" every once in a while.....

Im happy hareebrownbeest is trying this and wish him luck, because he'll need it for this to be drinkable I might be wrong, and I'll trust his judgement And admit so if he says it's good.
Had a taste yet, hareebrownbeest?
As for classifying this as definitively not a cider, I'll stick to my guns. We can hem and haw about whether something is a cyser, apple or pear wine or a cider, but I think fermented pineapple and grape juice definitely don't qualify, and i was simply agreeing with the thread author on HIS OWN determination it wasn't a cider. Wine, maybe, though I guess the final abv would help us narrow that down

I'm just trying something that I thought might be good. Time will tell.
