3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20Appearance was clear light gold with streaming bubbles, no head or lacing. Aromas are simple sweet tarty apple, hints of spices with no alcohol present. Taste is surprising easy tarty sugary spicey, apple cider, no alcohol. Palate is fizzy CO2 with light body, then lasting fruity tarty finish. Refreshingly easy pour, while being able to drink more without sour face...
3.9 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 17/20
Bomber into water glass. Very pale almost like watered down ginger ale. Granny Smith nose. In the mouth quite dry. Apple flavor as expected, without a lot of sugar. Finishes short and a bit tannic. Not the most complex of ciders, but I really like that it?s not sweetened. Farnaum (sp?) Hill is better, but not distributed where I am so this is probably the best I’m getting locally.
2.1 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
Run of the mill half hearted version of a hard cider. Strong acid and tartness.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
This bottle has been kicking around my fridge for three years. Pours a clear, light yellow. Aroma is light, dry apple with slight tart. Taste is apple with a dry, champagne-type alcohol flavor and dry tart. Clean mouthfeel. Seems okay but I’ve not had too many ciders.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Pale yellow, ring of head, rather flat looking. Nose is quite aged sour apple with a strong woody quality and the flavor follows through on this with consistency. Sour green appple finish.
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
22oz bottle in Seattle. Very pale clear yellow, pear looking. No head really. Soft fruit aroma, a little alcohol. Semi-dry, smooth, medium weight body. Slight green apple tart finish. Light and refreshing.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Draft. Almost clear with a thin fizzy head. Tart apples, medium acidity, and a relatively dry finish. Not bad.

Aroma: Little apple aroma on the nose.
Appearance: Almost clear. A slight tinge of pale yellow.
Taste: Very sweet with little apple taste. Very watery.
Palate: Very watery.
Overall: Would not buy again. Lacking the complexity of craft cider.
2.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
Bottle shared by shigadeyo. Pours a clear pale yellow color with a few small soapy bubbles. The aroma and flavor were sweet candy like apples with a splash of pear. Perhaps a faint hint of wood. Pretty thin. Definitely not my thing.
3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Bottle. Pours a clear pale yellow with a white ring and lots of bubbles. Sharp-sweet aroma of apples and yeast. Taste is crisp and sparkly, with lots of tart apples. Huge carbonation. Lingering crispy apple taste. Tasty and refreshing.
