Jan 9, 2010 Bottle. Aroma of a 4-H farm in the autumn. Flavor a bit more complex with tart and woody character. Very interesting effort that I find myself enjoying more and more, but still have a hard time giving it much of a verbal thumbs up.

Jan 3, 2010 Bottle, thanks Santa! Clear deep gold, fluffy white head that fades somewhat quickly. Nose is apple jolly ranchers, white grapes, fresh pressed cider, a bit of a twang I often get from meads. Flavor is Apple juice, apple jolly ranchers, a bit of fruity acidity. It is a bit too sweet - leaving a cloying sweetness after a sip. Its good, and really tastes like apples, but lacks the depth the other NG fruit beers I’ve had.

Dec 26, 2009 Traded bottle poured into a flute. Clear golden, brown colour with a white head and a little lacing. Gentle aroma of green apples, caramel, candy coatings and a hint of malt. This flavour is nice sweet apples, the brown base in the middle and then finishes with some nice tartness. This was phenomenal and I liked it every bit as much as their Cran-bic.

Nov 28, 2009 Tasted this at Fruit Beer night at Sud’s Club. It’s very tasty. Not too sweet and not too hoppy. None beer drinkers even enjoy it. Great fall beer.

Nov 27, 2009 12 oz. unplugged bottle - pours clear, light orange-amber with trace white head; sweet apples, wheat, pie crust, apple juice; drinks with a light texture and slight fruity zing; there is plenty of sweetness, but never falling into a sugary mess; pretty nice though reminding me too much of apple juice and not nearly as transcending as the raspberry tart, fruit and depth wise

Oct 27, 2009 On tap. Pour was medium golden with a nice white head. Aroma was mostly sweet with a hint of tartness. The blend of Macintosh apples with the beer was right on making this cider-like beer complex, yet simple. Very fine brew that was a pleasure to drink.

Oct 25, 2009 bottle, pours clear dark gold, thin off white head. Aroma is granny smith apple all the way. Sweet pale malt meets apple juice. A little bit of spice in the finish. Pretty boring.
