Aroma of sweet and tart apples. Taste is the same. Light bodied with a thin texture. Fizzy carbonation and an abrupt finish. Overall, not bad. Not much different from the other Hornsby’s.

Tasted from bottle into pint glass. Poured a clear, light amber color of apple juice with a weak head and no lace. Strong apple aroma with complimentary fruity yeast phenols.Flavor is apples and alcohol, and little else. Slightly higher alcohol percentage and slightly drier finish than other popular hard ciders.

UPDATED: OCT 15, 2010 Yuck, not a fan of Cider beers. I can manage them though, and after two or three I might grow to enjoy them, for one evening at least. Reminds me of the Renaissance Faire.

Not bad for a cider. I thought it smelled like apples and a bit of dry liquor; vermouth, vodka. Tastes like a watered down shot of the same. Refreshing.
