3.2 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Was a guest brew at Harvest. Consumed while walking. Poured a pale color with no visible head. Smells and tastes of tarted apples, white wine dregs, eucalyptus and yeast. Nice and sessionable.

Brilliant almost clear color. Fermented apple and slight oak int he smell, the flavor is crisp and refreshing. A good summer cider.
3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20
A pale yellow cider with no head. In aroma, nice fragrant apple pulp with light chalky notes, very nice. In mouth, a light mineral tart apple with chalk, acidity, apple skins. On tap at Mash Tun Festival, May 19 2011.
2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Draft in a sampler at the Clybourn brewpub. Pours almost clear, with a piss-yellow gold hue and no head. The aroma is sweat and apples with some sugary sweetness. The flavor is crisp, tart, refreshing apples and not as sweet or sweaty as the nose. Light-bodied, with surprisingly high carbonation on the palate for not seeing any in the glass. So-so cider.
2.8 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Full sampler at Brixie’s in Brookfield, IL.. Showed almost clear, with quickly diminishing bubbles and no lacing. The nose was pleasant sweetness and apple. The sweetness dominated any tartness in the flavor which was basically fruity, lightly syrupy, but thin. Soft carbonation sealed the deal on my impression of a bland palate cleanser.

Enjoyed on tap at Bad Apple in Chicago, IL while dining on a gift certificate provided by friends. Appearance very dry water like, no head, light gold. Aroma is very European, like mineral water with apples. Taste is extremely dry, similar to the aroma. Its not my jam.
2.7 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20
Cider! Went to burger bar and had this on tap, just cause! Pours a clear gold with small white head that diminishes to nothing. The aroma is a faint fruit amd wheat. Thin mouthfeel with a sour fruit and crisp finish. Easy to drink but nothing to wow me.
