3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20 beerbill (2847) - Laurel, New York, USA - NOV 11, 2011
750 ml bottle. Pours a very pretty clear gold with a bit of a spritz and a very thin head that evaporates almost immediately. Pleasant aroma of apples along with a bit of yeast. The flavor is apple, crisp and flavorful, along with a bit of yeast. Very dry and clean at the finish. I’ll use the word again, crisp. The carbonation is just enough to accentuate without being prickly on the palate. Quite good.

Bottle. Pours a hazed gold with a thin white head. Big soft apple aromas on the nose. Smooth with a nice body, delicate carbonation and a bit of acid. Dries out quickly and picks up a bit of sulfites. Light sweetness, tart, soft acid. Fairly nice, if not overwhelmingly memorable in many ways.

750 ml bottle. Clear golden yellow with a fizzy white head. Aroma of apple, musty earthy funk and wood. The flavor is tart apples, light suger sweetness and a earthy sourness. Light body with sparkling carbonation and a dry, clean, refreshing finish. This is my type of cider, very dry and has a sour funk going on as well, in a really nice way.

3.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 17/20 CharlesDarwin (2566) - Peace Dale, Rhode Island, USA - SEP 19, 2010
750mL Bottle. Tart, tangy light puckery apple nose. Pours a brilliant clear gold, with minimal head. Flavors are complex, if a bit elusive. Super, super dry, very clean finish. There’s a faint hint of lambic-like sourness and yeasty complexity. Super-crisp. I think I’d take an edge more sweetness for balance, but really this has a refined, maturity that reminds me most of good Spanish Cava. Elegant.
