Commercial Description:
Original Sin was born out of the NYC experience. The founders, all NYC'ers, came to see the need for a superior cider, a cider that was clean and complex with a noticeable bite. The quest to creat the perfect recipe encompassed both day and night. Day was spent in upstate in a winery, tasting, testing and mixing. Nights were spent in NYC bars, getting feedback from bar owners and patrons. The result, Original Sin Hard Cider was released to immediate acclaim from sources as diverse as the The New York Times, Paper Magazine, and Market Watch.

Draft at Hop Devil Grill - Nearly clear in color with a golden hue. Aroma is very sweet with apples and sugar. Flavor is very sugary with some syrupy apple taste. Not bad at all, but very simple.

There isn’t much to this cider at all.... aroma is slightly alcoholic.. but not much else. Appearance: urific. Meaning: looks like urine. Flight flavor of apples but not too exciting. Smooth to the palate. Overall... meh.

Short stubby bottle with a twist off cap. Nearly as clear as water but it does have a very slight yellow hue to it. Mild apples in the aroma. Not too sweet nor tart on the taste buds. Easy going and it leaves a slightly dull aftertaste on the back of the palate. At times it seems to almost have a vinous character about it. Not bad, could easily drink a few of these. 6% is not that prevalent in this drink, hides it rather well.

Nose was strongly of cheap white wine. Taste was essentially the same. Tart with a touch of musty alcohol and sour fruits. Color is very clear, no head. Pretty blase...

Not too bad for a "hard" cider. Nice flavor of apples that aren’t too sweet or too tangy. Pours an interesting almost clear white, with a decent sized head.
