Clear gold color, light carbonation and disipating head as expected. The nose is musky and a bit tart with some grassy apple notes. The flavor is a little tart, some sugars. Seems like an alcopop, not much of a cider here. Low carbonation and refreshing albeit.

used to drink this a bit back in the day. one of the more classic flavored cider but less easily found anymore. snakebite, black velvet. pours yellow clear with effevesense and little to no head. pretty thin flavors for a cider with subtle macintosh apples and tart background. butter backing as well. much less alcohol then then i thought...thus the less flavor.

Bland, Bland, Bland, No taste whatsoever. Pours clear with a light foam. Smells good to, but doesn’t pack a punch anywhere else. Grab a Hornsby’s or Woodchuck.

Pours a medium golden yellow color. Kinda weak flavor is a little sweet and a little sour. Not a whole lot going on.

Pale gold with no head. Sweet aroma and taste. That’s about all there is to say. I assume apples were used in its manufacture, but they have left little trace on the final product.

ThomasE (5176) - Copenhagen, DENMARK - FEB 20, 2006
Pale yellow beer with a small head. Fruity, light tart aroma with a notes of apple. Lots of apple fruityness in a light tart flavor.

JohnnyOS (646) - Golden, Wisconsin, USA - FEB 12, 2006
Pours a pee yellow color with no head, unless you count the faint wisps at the top. Aroma of a watery apple wine with a thin flavor of apples. Doesn’t taste like much of a cider. Although if your interested in creating the flavor at home. Add one cup water, two cups schweps, and one cup apple juice...

Bottle. Sour apple aroma. Piss yellow color with small head. Sweet tart apple flavor with moderate carbonation. Cider light - not bad but not a lot of flavor.
