Just bottled batch 4 of 6 of this years hard cider and found 2 yellow jackets that snuck in when we were pressing the cider. The cider did have a somewhat funky smell but nothing atypical of a young cider. I usually try pretty hard to avoid letting them in but I guess these guys were just determined to die in a vat of deliciousness. Has anybody had this happen and know if it might affect the final flavor?
