2.9 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20 troyc (2014) - Oklahoma, USA - JUN 2, 2010
[Can] Pours a clear yellow color with a fizzy head. Aroma of apple juice and sweet fruity notes. Taste is of tart apple juice and white wine. High carbonation level. Quite dry throughout. Better on tap than from the can. This is definitely not as bad as advertised.
3.5 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20 MPosey (130) - , Georgia, USA - JUN 2, 2010
Pours a nice hay yellow, with a foam head that very quickly goes away. Dry green apple attack, almost white wine like. Finishes dry. It isn’t beer but it isn’t a terrible cider.

16.9oz can. My first Cider rating. Pours a clear glowing golden brass color with a small fizzy white frothy head. Aroma isn’t particularly strong, sweet cider, hint grassy, not much else. Flavor is actually quite dry and fairly tart on the finish, longer tart aftertaste, dry tart apple taste, faint and actually pretty good. Medium/light bodied with finer sharp sizzling carbonation.

16oz. can from store. Pours a sparkling golden-yellow with average white head. Very light apple and doughy yeast aroma to it. This beer is very fizzy and is rather light and thin on the palate. Has a dry apple mettalic taste to it. This is definitely my favorite cider out there.
2.5 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20 pumpmaster (808) - Pembroke Pines, Florida, USA - MAY 14, 2010
Half pint draught on 5/12 at The Advocate pub and restaurant in Edinburgh, Scotland. Not bad.
2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 7/20 KyotoLefty (3480) - Kyoto, JAPAN - MAY 14, 2010
Draught version. Apple aroma, very fizzy, tastes like an industrial cider should. Not much to rave about, but not much to really hate. Useless but a nice refresher on the way home.
3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20 scooterbub (532) - Lander, Wyoming, USA - MAY 3, 2010
12 ounce bottle, but says 5% abv. Pours a clear fizzy golden-yellow with a thin white head that lasts. Is very active for a cider. Has a very pleasant, fresh apple aroma. The taste is of fresh, tart apples. Has a nice dry finish and is slightly sweet. Very refreshing and easy to drink.

I think the smell is a bit to that of sick in cans but the taste is not to bad; much better Cider’s out there but for people who don’t have much money or running low on drinks to get in Strongbow is a good backup.
