Can from Total Wine in Sacramento, CA. Pours copper with an aroma of almost overripe apples. Near med body. It’s astringent. Green apple sort of flavor. Comes across like sweet/tart. Probably one of the more flavorful and drinkable ciders.

Golden pour with a short lived white foam. Tons of green apple sourness. A bit of a green Jolly Rancher flavor. Sugary sweetness, some grass, and straw. The flavor is sweet, sugary, and sour. Green apple, a little bit of grass, and a carbonic finish.

Can. Pours with a clear and fizzy, deeper golden hued body. Minimal head retention after the initial rush of carbonation. Aromas are sharply appley, mild sulfur, doughy, medium sweetness, medium-low acid. Some earthy notes, but nothing too funky. Flavors are medium sweet, apple, light acid (both natural and artificial). Medium body. Lightly earthy, low tannin. Very fizzy carbonation with harsher, bigger bubbles. Okay.
