Dec 12, 2009 My Bottom Line:
Sweet apple must develops decent tartness around straightforward cereal flavors for this uncompelling but pleasantly fruity brew.
Further Personal Perceptions:
-A ring of foam surrounds the cloudy amber.
-This has more body than hard cider, but the flavor profile remains quite similar.
-If carbonation were increased a bit, this would be a welcome replacement to any session cider available in the province.
-This is not my kind of brew, but I can appreciate the fact that it is well rendered and they can probably reach a new clientele with the novelty factor.
On tap at the brewpub.

Nov 19, 2009 2009-11-17. Hazy cider amber body with a small beige head. 3+ Fruity aroma, both ale fruitiness and fresh fruity apples. 7+ Flavour is crisp, fresh apples with mild malt base below. Touch of Granny Smith like notes, other lightly acidic apple characteristics. 7+ Average palate suits it. Refreshing, quite drinkable. It is probably a bit too cidery/appley for some, but I found it very enjoyable. On tap at the brewpub

Nov 17, 2009 Draught. At the brewpub. Slightly hazy gold with an average creamy white head. Light aroma of slightly musty apples and vague white-wine - quite cidery. The taste is of tart apples mixed with a very young, light white wine (chablis), but not boozy at all - light and still mouthfeel, the acidity emerges in the linger ... I liked it, I would love to see them add some mulling spices to this for a flavour kick.

Oct 25, 2009 On tap at the brewpub. Very cloudy golden/beige (almost looks like Bailey’s) body with a thin beige creamy head. Nice malty/hoppy aroma with apple and flowery hints. Fresh taste that carries apple notes. Ends with a fair bittersweet finish. Enjoyable and refreshing.
