Keg, can, bottle, somewhere. Whatever. Urgh it’s really not great is it? Yellow, little to no head. Nasty over-ripe apple nose, watery palate with a weird tangy vinous streak. Definitely not made from apples... Mediocre at best, but I suppose it does the job when cold.

Definitely a cider to have on-hand for those hot summer months! Perfect for those days spent doing yard work or out in the garden; a pleasant alternative to beer! This cider poured up an amber-colored body with a thin head with minimal retention and lacing effects. Aromas of ripe apples and a hint of lemon and grapefruit. Flavors of the same. This is a very light drink and is very easy on the palette; no harsh or bitter aftertaste. Drink it ice cold; heck drink it over ice!! Great for the BBQ and fish frys!!

Despite the addition of artificial sweeteners and preservatives, this isn’t a good cider. Bittersweet, dry, but not very drinkable. There are a lot of better and more natural choices.

gramity (520) - Edmonton, Alberta, CANADA - SEP 15, 2011
Pours a clear, light yellow colour with a small white head. Aroma of apple with some bite. Flavour of mild tart apples, lime and wet wood. Light bodied with a slick mouthfeel. Dry apple finish. Basic but well done.

I thought this was a decent cider not to sweet but a little on the watery side.

Not a spectacular cider. A little sour, some flavour, but overall quite watery and bland.
