==Introduction to Funky/Sour/Spontaneous Alternative Fermentation of Cider==(To do)Though most commercial ciders available in the US are clean fermented, cider making has a long history of wild, spontaneous fermentation and in some areas of the world still does and others are seeing it make a comeback<ref>http://drinks.seriouseats.com/2013/03/wild-fermented-ciders-natural-yeast-fermentation-cider-reviews.html</ref>. Cider is one of the easiest fermented beverages to make at home as it only requires picking up a container of fresh pressed, unpasteurized juice and letting it ferment.
Talk about the introduction Unlike beer, cider does not sour due to fermenting cider microbial activity, but instead undergoes [[Cider#Malolactic_Fermentation|Malolactic Fermentation]], which convert malic acid to lactic acid. Cider can, however, get funky with presence of alternative microbesin either primary or secondary fermentation.
