3.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
275 ml. Clear and pale gold with a head that fizzes off faster than I type this. Aroma is apples, possibly some woody and earthy tones as well. Flavor is similar. Crisp and clean, with no notice of the 6.9% or any strange twangs you typically get with ciders. It’s like drinking apple juice, but not so sweet and sticky. Pretty refreshing. Light body and slightly dry palate. Beats hell out of most of the Fruit Beers out there.
2.8 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
[Bottle, thanks Philsner] Aroma is apples, but it is weak and average at best. Taste is pretty plain too, very similar to just drinking carbonated apple juice. Thin body, fairly short finish. Certainly drinkable, but not a real good cider.
3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
(bottle, thanks Philsner) pours light golden. Aroma is mainly apple juice with a little tartness to it along with slight spice. Taste is apple, slightly tart but quite watered down compared to higher quality ciders, but still not too bad.

Robe blonde dorée légèrement pétillante sans mousse. Arômes de chair de pommes. Saveurs de chair et de pelures de pommes.
3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
22 oz. Bottle - Pours a golden, yellowish color with little fizzy head. Bubbles travel up the glass much like wine. Aroma is sweet, appley, slightly acidic, crisp, and smells lightly of alcohol (smells much like wine). Tastes like apples (obviously), dry, crisp, tart with a very slight alcoholic bite. All around a pretty good cider, not too sweet - but not too bitter, especially tasty for 6.9% ABV.
3.1 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Clear yellow with little head. Decent apple taste. A bit of "tang" in the after-taste. OK alternative to beer.
2.6 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 13/20
bottle - pours w/little to no head; just a bit of residuals around the edges. aromas of metallic apples, but other than that, its aromas are closed. it tastes about like apple juice with a hint of carbonation. it’s really a simple smooth beverage with a clean finish. it’s a niche beer, but good nonetheless. as the level nears empty, it is definitely growing on me. perhaps it’s a pleasant brew, definitely the best of ciders thus far.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Drank out of the bottle. Smooth, clean, and somewhat dry. Good apple taste. Alcohol well hidden. Not amazing like a dupont, but pretty good for a regular 6 pack cider.
2.8 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
Bottle. Pours a light golden color with no head. aroma of apples... duh. Not much to say. flavor of apples, slightly tart. Dryer than woodchuck. Mildly carbonated. Ok. B.
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
Appearance: Pours a brilliantly clear, pale golden body with a meager amount of fizzle.
Smell: Aroma of apples with a mellow sweetness and a touch of mustiness.
Taste: A very pleasant, well-balanced blend of sweet apple and tart flavors, with a dry, wine-like finish. Maintains a crisp, fresh taste right through to the end. "K" reminds me of a few vouvrays I’ve had in recent years.
Mouthfeel: Light-bodied and lightly carbonated.
Drinkability: "K" Draft Cider is a terrifically refreshing and clean beverage! Sometimes it is nice to change gears and toss a cider into the mix.
If only the bottles weren’t so small...
