We sell a lot of this at work, so I had to try one. Pretty much the same thing I’ve grown to expect from most ciders. Sweet and granny smith appley up front, with touches of spice and tartness with fizzes towards the back. Lightly watery. Still looking for that cider that’s going to blow me away! Recommendations anyone?

UPDATED: MAY 14, 2011 12 ounce bottle. Pours a very very clear and very pale yellow color with a thin head. Fair head retention ad lacing. Good thing it was free. Drain pour coming. Faint grainy green apple aroma. Taste is grainy tart green apple. Thin bodied. Not much going on here,

$1.50 tick from New Beer. Green stubby bottle. Pint glass pour. Same guys that make Woodchuck. Oh crap. Ingredients: ...less then one percent of: malic acid, NATURAL APPLE FLAVOR(huh?), sorbate and sulfites(yay! :) to preserve flavor. 5%ABV. Faint, almost colorless, clear, generic cream soda color. Lasting, scummy white paste head. Smells exactly like my last pour of Woodchuck, which is nothing more then Y?-grade apples, compost, sulfur & yeast. Taste isn’t terrible. Just not appetizing & unbashfully artificial. Soft carbonation, confectioners sugar, severely watered-down apple sauce, old beer residue, dusty preservatives, & a little tin. Half sour, thin, flat Canada Dry finish.

Lame- sour, crappy. Watery and thing. High carbonation sting. This is better than a lot of ciders, but not by a much. Bottle at The Abbey, Miami Beach.

Bottle compliments of Sparky27...thanks Eric!!! 10 karat crystal clear pour with a razor thin whispy white head and no lacing. This one is all Granny Smith (which is what one would expect). An enjoyable beverage.

Pours a clear yellow with lots of carbonation. Aroma is tart apples and a little jolly rancher chemical. Flavor is ok, a touch sweet, but a nice tart finish. Decent cider.

Bottle. Pours a clear bright gold with a half finger white head. The nose is unripe apples. The taste is tart apple upfront that finishes sweet, but not overbearing. Light prickly mouthfeel. Good refreshing cider.

Bottle. Pours light gold with a fizz white head. Tart green apple aroma. The flavor has tart and dry apple sweetness with a dry and lightly acidic finish. Not bad.
