1.5 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 4/20Cloudy pale gold pour with a thin, soapy white head that has decent retention and leaves some lacing. Aroma of apple Jolly Rancher, light starchy grain and a hint of sweet corny malt. Flavor is apple Jolly Rancher, starchy wheat, bitter medicinal and metallic notes, sweet bread spice and some hot, spicy, fusel-like notes. Light off dry, strachy feel throughout with a, oily undertone. Kinda gross overall, all things considered.

Lots of flavor, a littke too sweet for me after about the second one i was done. The label is what attracted me.

3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bottle at James’s 4k/5k/10k tasting. Pours a clear gold with a thin white head. Smells like hard apple candies. Tangy apple over a big amount of grain. Dirty grain. Tart on the finish, with a bit of sweetness. Not terrible.
2.5 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 9/20
Bottle. Pours a hazy golden orange color with white head. Sweet, apple, white wine aromas. Strong apple flavor with some wheat in the background. Really appley, not something I would really want to have again.
2.1 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 7/20
Bottle poured a hazy gold with a lingering ring of white foam. Aromas of jolly rancher apple candy and light wheat. Palate was light bodied and crisp. Flavors of wheat, apple jolly ranchers and light yeast with a crisp finish.
4 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
Pours a cloudy and hazy Apple Cider/Yellow color. Small White head that only lasts for a few seconds. Aroma is of a strong Apple scent. Little to no carbonation. Taste is of Sour Apple. A little light and watery, with a tart aftertaste. Not bad on a hot day. A good beer made by Shock Top. Would probably have given this one an even higher rating if there was some carbonation in it though, because tastes more like a wine cooler than a beer without the carbonation, but it’s still good!!
3.8 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Had it on tap at Loafers in Chicago, poured a cloudy yellow color, with a medium head and no lacing. The aroma had an apple fruity smell, and the taste was very sweet. Good on a summer day!
2.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
Smells and tastes like a sour apple jolly rancher. Not bad on a hot day, but tough to have more than one or two. Tart and sweet, and full of apple flavor.
2.6 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Bottle. Pale yellow pour with slight haze. Apple cider on the nose. Little weaker on the taste. Drinkable beverage but pretty gimmicky.
