(12oz bottle, courtesy of mar) Pours a clear pale yellow body with no head. Aroma of baby diapers, plastic, and apple. Flavor of apple, plastic, and sugar with a somewhat dry finish.

Still a virgin when it comes to ciders, so this is just an experiment with the whole field of cider, but I enjoy it. Fruity and easy to drink, I can see why the girls like it.

ChainGangGuy (3682) - Canton, Georgia, USA - APR 7, 2010
Appearance: Pours a clear, light gold body with a hint of fine effervescence. Ultra thin, white head. Smell: Blackthorn smells of musty, sliced apples. Hmm, nothing to get too excited about. Taste: Musty apple tart. It’s a tad raunchy in the tart-department. Even a hint of sourness tucked away in there. Altogether unpleasant. Mouthfeel: Light-bodied. Light carbonation. Drinkability: Guh! Like a slightly spoiled, low-grade white wine. Again: guh.

drowland (3570) - Tallahassee, Florida, USA - APR 6, 2010
500mL can into a pint glass. The pour is clear apple juice with a basically non-existent white head that fizzes to nothing instantly. The aroma is dirty hard water, yeast, and a hint of cider - really wasn’t expecting this... The aroma is dry apples, almost but not quite riesling, and a hint of sour kick. Not terrible, but pretty generic... meh.

An appearance looking like the petals of the Thunder Badge from Pokemon Puzzle League for the Nintendo 64. Lightly fruity, though slightly smelling of vinegar. Doesn’t taste too good, either. This cider just isn’t fun. What else do you people need to know?

Rciesla (5500) - Exit 15W, New Jersey, USA - MAR 31, 2010
Bottle. Horrible. Pours a pale golden body with a white head. Aroma is apple skins and porridge, yes i meant like the breakfast. Really thin and weak with a baby formula like grainy oatmeal flavor, just atrocious, fucking drain poured.
