Picked up a 750 ml bottle at Mars Cheese Castle near Kenosha, Wisconsin, just off of I-94. Pours a sparkling light golden straw cider with a thick and white bubbly fizz head that slowly dissipates to a fine white ring. Aroma of semi-dry apple cider, a touch of yeast, some light floral and herb/spice character. Taste is semi-dry, plenty of carbonation with flavors of semi-dry apple cider, a mild yeast presence with a touch of herbs and some wood. Finish is semi-dry and not too sweet as first thought but still has a light crisp dry apple aftertaste that slowly disappears.

Jun 15, 2008 Less intense than the brut. There is apple in the aroma, but it is not as sweet or strong. The flavor is just a little bit sweeter than the brut, but this is still a dry cider.

May 29, 2008 Thanks to Skyview! Light yellow color with a little fizzy head. Marshmallowy aroma and some lemon zest. Sweet apple taste. Some floral and a tart finish.
