Pours a clear copper color with nearly no head. Aroma is sweet, grainy apples with a bit of brown sugar. Taste is sugary sweet apple juice. Very weakly carbonated.

| 4.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Apr 16, 2009 I liked this one slightly better then the Granny Smith. It had a little more of a classic cider profile. I do wish it was a tad sweeter, but if you like your cider dry this is a good one. kseecs16 (874), Naperville, Illinois, USA
| 2.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 2/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 9/20 | Apr 11, 2009 Bottle. Aroma is sweet apple juice and a dry note. Amber golden, effervescent when poured then settling. To still with just a hint of faint off-white bubbles for a head. Very sweet, little else going on, lacks a nice carbonation, seems like apple juice. Light bodied.
