The Cocky
Crane story
1969 is a year that’s spoken of to this day. It was the year that Herrljunga Cider first started fermenting. But what not everyone knows is that this very year a crane chose to end her journey with us at Herrljunga Cider.
The crane landed right on top of the roof next to one of the cidery’s exhaust vents. This is where the smell of apples is strongest, and so it was here she camped. This crane was special, and not at all shy. In fact, she was rather cocky when she stole morsels from the rejected apples in the yard. It was an unusual autumn, one in which it was common for the Crane’ to be found sneaking around the applebuckets.
