Can from the LCBO. Clear gold colour with a small white head. Slightly tinny apple aroma. Thin, crisp body. Dry flavour of cheap apple juice. OK for an industrial cider, but that’s really the best I can say about it.

50 cL can. Apple cider aroma. Brassy gold color with a white head that ringed immediately. Thin to medium bodied, with mild, nearly creamy, carbonation. The taste is of apple juice that has been cooked or pasteurized, with some apple skin bitter/sour for companionship. It starts a bit sweet, shifts to sour, and the mouth is left with apple to the rear and astringency elsewhere. Drinkable stuff.

My personal favorite cider. I drink alot of this stuff on hot summer days. Crisp and refreshing like no beer can match. Perfectly dry and tart.

Gave into temptation at Bombers Burrito Bar. Cider smells like apples, tastes like apples! A tart but refreshing beverage, great when you want to "mix it up" a little. Was ready for a "real beer" by the time the pint was gone, though!

I like it. Sweet with sour apple falvor. Not too much of a head. Nice light golden color. I’d drink this whenever I needed a break from beer.

Tart and very much like a caramel apple. Very good, and strangely it caused a really fast drunk. Hmm...

UPDATED: AUG 11, 2007 On tap at the OverDraught Irish Pub, Toronto ON. Good nose, a little light on colour. Taste is good - you could drink a few of them, probably - but the tartness would get to you. Probably the best carbonated cider I’ve had yet. The advertisement around the city is pretty cool too.
