3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
12 oz bottle. Pours a light straw yellow with lively effervescence. The aroma is sweet apples, a little bit of a dusty note, some minerals; very light in the nose. The flavor has some apple sweetness with some dust, hay, and mineral notes. Chalky finish. Drinkable, but hard for me to get into.

Jan 12, 2012 tap at Valley Tap House. Translucent very light yellow poured over ice. Bubbly sweet and sour apple cider. After seeing it around so much, I finally had to give it a try and not bad.
2.3 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 8/20
355mL. Pours a very light straw to near green with high, bubbly, soda like carbonation. No head formation. Nose is plasticy, not very fresh, near phenol character. Taste is sour green apple Jolly Rancher, tart, really no sugary apple component remains. Instead, this feels more like a perry with white pear and white grape juice tartness and muted sweetness. Tangy, fairly refreshing finish. Nothing really offensive, but it misses all of the things that can make a cider wonderful.

Purchased at Breeze Thru Wine & Spirits in Milwaukee, WI; enjoyed prior to leaving for the airport to escape my frigid city. Appearance a light gold with no head, looks like slightly yellow water with tiny carbonation bubbles. Aroma of sugar and apple juice. Taste is pretty crisp, definitely tastes like natural apples, and a bit cider like, nothing much more though. It’s decent stuff, nothing outstanding, just standard.

A nice light crisp cider. There is not a whole lot special going on here, but its not bad either.

12oz bottle. Rating #119. Clear pale yellow pour, a little lighter than standard apple juice. Sweet apple aroma, nice and clean. Flavor is sweet apples as well, much like regular apple juice with a slight kick, very crisp and juicy. Nice. (2096)
