Ungstrup (22911) - Oamaru, NEW ZEALAND - APR 18, 2009
Can. A dark golden cider with a lazing off-white. The aroma is sweet and acidic with lots of apples. The flavor is sweet apply leading to a slightly tart finish.

jake65 (2095) - Williston, North Dakota, USA - APR 11, 2009
Bottle: Pours a watery golden color with a little bit of bubbly head. Watery color sets the tone for watery taste; goes along with the overly ripe I just picked this bunch of apples up from the ground and threw them in the tank without washing them first flavor. Doesn’t help that the smell brings some rotten apple scents before a hint of dry and ciderlike qualities. This sucked. Worst cider ever.

dalekliz (648) - San Diego, California, USA - MAR 31, 2009
Bottle. Pours a clear dark gold. Dry, sharp apple aroma, with a bit of yeast. Taste is a bit sweeter, more apple juice, though still some tart apple. Lingering sweet and dry apple, a bit watery. Very drinkable.

Clear yellow with lots of bubbles and small quickly disappearing white head. Fermented apple aroma. Dry sparkling apple with dry apple aftertaste. Long lasting carbonation.

grandgenie (259) - gatineau, Quebec, CANADA - MAR 11, 2009
Acheté à la LCBO et dégusté avec glandine dans un verre de blanche de chambly. Apparence jaune foncée avec une effervescence rapide et un petit collet de mousse. Arômes de pomme acidulé et de pelure. La bière a une certaine retenue olfactive les pommes sont présente mais coupé avec de l’eau. Goût de pomme très léger et bien gazéfier, je la trouve quand même très interessante.

Sparky (2128) - Phoenix, Arizona, USA - FEB 23, 2009
Bottle. Pours a glowing gold with a one finger white head that faded fast. The nose is apples and malt. The taste is green apples, honey and malt. Very wine-like. Lighter sticky body. OK for what it is.

FastEddie (228) - Louisville, Kentucky, USA - FEB 21, 2009
Very little head and very little carbonation. Clear golden color, which indicates that this is very much filtered, which doesn’t seem a good sign to me. The body is slightly better than expected, and the flavor is tart and not too bad. Reminds me of my early 20’s when we used to drink this stuff, so I am probably being overly generous.
