A clear golden colour with little to no head. Aroma of apple with a flavour to match and a little dry to finish. Very similar to the Linden Village Strong Cider.

Blonkers (1) - IRELAND - AUG 22, 2011 does not count
Pretty decent cider. Quite cheap, costs 1.49 per can where I live which is pretty competitive compared to other ciders out there. Big head when pouring with a lot of froth when pouring but evaporates almost instantly. Goes flat extremely fast. Horrible aroma. Cant quite understand why as amost every other cider smells quite appealing to me but there is just something about this one I dont like. Orangey colour is the exact same as every other cider yet it almost looks like apple juice for the lack of fizz on it. Clear apple taste very average for a cider with a distinctly sweet aftertaste. Its more something that teenagers would go bushing with than a real cider a man would favour. Pretty average in all respects and doesn’t really stand out. Worth a once off try but I dont really see many people coming back to it.

omhper (17478) - Stockholm, SWEDEN - APR 14, 2011
Canned in Dublin. Clear pale golden. Aroma of honey drenched rotting vegetables. Disturbingly sweet up front (despite its name). Light bodied with hefty carbonation. Drying chalky finish. Some overripe industrial applyness, Really not good.

mabel (5043) - Toronto, Ontario, CANADA - JUN 13, 2009
[2168-20090518] 500mL can. Very mild fruit and cardboard aroma. Clear, golden orange body with no head. Mild generic fruit juice flavour. Light-medium body is fizzy. Watery and boring, not much going on.

jercraigs (6477) - Toronto, Ontario, CANADA - MAY 28, 2009
2009-05-18. Dark yellow with a bubbly white head that fades. Very mild aroma, very muted musty touches, mostly just sweet aroma of canned apple juice. Flavour is similar, quite mild, sweet apple juice in the middle, dry cidery tartness builds in the finish and fades away quickly, leaving lingering mild apple juice sweetness. Average palate. Tastes a little bite like a home brew cider that I fermented and then cut with fresh apple juice and sulphited. Simplisitic, drinkably inoffensive. Can from Dunnes, Ennis

Ungstrup (26267) - Citizen of the universe, DENMARK - FEB 14, 2009
Can. A golden cider with a thin white head. The aroma is sweet with notes of apples, while the flavor is sweet with notes of both apples and wood. Thanks KimJohansen for sharing.
