500ml can from LCBO. My second alcoholic cider. Poured pale into a whiskey glass. Visible carbonation with a light smell of apples and alcohol. Taste is lightly pungent, with a faint taste of apple juice and the taste of alcohol is very present with an ending note of gin. Not a very impressive cider, mostly because the alcohol isn’t hidden too well. The apple isn’t very present either. Wouldn’t buy.

Draft, NYC, Looks, smells, and tastes like a cheap champagne. Very little sweet aroma, taste is rather bitter and too dry, and palate is harsh. It was a hassle getting this pint down.

Draft at Ye Olde Kings Head: Dry, white wine like. No head, light orange color, little aroma.

330 ml. Clear pale gold with a small spit of bubbles. Aroma of apples with chemical fertilizer. Taste is sour apples and light kerosene. Light body is watery, dry and lightly carbonated. Hope this one keeps my sink from clogging in the future!

“hard” tasting at Three Cellars Milwaukee. Dry and sweet one of the better hard ciders I have had.

11.2 oz. bottle. Pours a clear gold with no head and a scattering of tiny bubbles along the wall of the glass. Very weak aroma of apples. The flavor is watered down apples with a bit of yeast in the aftertaste. Slightly dry at the finish. Thin, watery body. Dull and uninteresting.
