Commercial Description:
Our Hard Apple Cider is dryer than most. It’s a great choice when the goal of the beverage is not to overpower the entrée. An excellent choice with lighter meals such as chicken, seafood, salads and brunch. A "sophisticated everyday drink".

Extremely pale gold. Apple smell. Tastes of green apples. I can’t put my finger on the aftertaste though. Palate is like champagne. Fox barrel’s pear cider is far better.

Jacksonville, Fl. - Total Wines - 12 oz bottle. Light golden pour - indistinguishable from the glass of chardonnay my wife was having. Clean aroma of freshly sliced golden delicious apples. Crisp flavor - some Gala apples, a bit of sour granny smith - overall very smooth. Crisp mouthfeel. Enjoyable.

Average for a cider. I don’t agree with the analysis that "our hard cider is dryer than most"; this didn’t really taste at all dry. It was plenty sweet, not much dryness, not much tartness. Decent, but nothing that exciting.

Draft. A light golden cider. The aroma is dominated by apples combined with slight notes of wood. The flavor is sweet apply with a slightly tart dry finish.

From tap at Pizza Port, Carlsbad. pours pale yellow with a minimal white head. Aroma is mild apple, dry. Flavour is light apple flavoured, only vague sweet and quite clean with no phenolic notes at all. slight alcohol finish.

Pale yellow color. Dry appley aroma. Flavor is sweeter by far than the aroma. Tart and sweet apples intertwine, but don’t do much. Kind of sugary in not the best way. If you’re a cider fan, try it.
