This was a rather obscure find. It had a mostly fabled existance but was eventually tracked down in Central Illinois at a place called Friar Tuck's in Springfield. After tasting it, it probably was more meaningful as that ever sought after enigma which was destined to never be found. Regardless, it was found and unfortunately disappointing. It was basically flat and exceptionally sweet with an aftertaste I wasn't sure would ever go away. It was a slightly clouded pour with a aroma of stale fruit. With the exception of the aftertaste, it drank rather easily. If you have a chance to find it, try it and see if you agree.

Pours yellow/straw with a fizzy body. Smells of artificial apple juice and boozy. Tastes like strongbow with a more alcopop taste.

An odd cider. Normal, mild aroma of apple juice. Light gold color. Flavors of sour apple and sugar, as well as a light spice I can’t name. Unfortunately none of these flavors are very good.

I thought this cider had a little too much of an alcohol taste to it. It was okay and drank easily like ciderguy said, but I'll still stick to the ACE Pear.
