blipp	3.4 Anthem Tea Cider Draft. Pours gold with a white head. Sweet tea and apple juice, with the sweet tea a bit stronger up front before yielding to fruity apple in the finish. Tasty. Wednesday, April 24, 2019
BubbleAromas26	4.5 Wandering Aengus Wickson Single Varietal made an account just to review this. this is really something specal -- After having tried many different ciders in southern california -- the wandering aengus really is head & shoulders above everything else. * dry * bitterness from crab apple * heavy in lactic acid (flavorful) * nice after-taste -- leaves you wanting more Saturday, August 18, 2018

blipp	2.9 Anthem Gose Inspired Watermelon Draft. Pours pale yellowish with a white head. Some watermelon sweetness, mild apple juice, a little acidity, and some weird fruity notes in the finish. This is fine, but there's something just a touch odd about it. Monday, July 23, 2018
mcberko	3.3 Wandering Aengus Byrd On tap at Schilling Cider House - PDX, pours a cloudy blonde with a small white head. Nose brings out farmhouse yeast, oak and crisp apples. Flavour is complex, with dry oak, apple yeast, and crisp apples. Crisp and champagne-like. Good stuff. Sunday, July 22, 2018

dedarnell	5 Wandering Aengus Wanderlust Monday, March 26, 2018
brokensail	3.5 Wandering Aengus Wanderlust On tap @ Bambino's. Clear yellow liquid with a short-lived white head on top. Has a nice candied ginger spiciness to it without being over the top. More on the tart and dry side than I would have imagined, actually. Slight grape skin, lots of green and golden apple, and perhaps a hint of pear. Maybe a light fruit juice sweetness in there. Not bad. Friday, December 8, 2017
bpreo	0.5 Wandering Aengus Honeycrisp Sampled at the 2017 McKenzie Cider and Craft Beer Festival. I think this was my least enjoyed drink of the night. It unfortunately receives the lowest possible score. Monday, November 13, 2017

tmoreau	3.3 Wandering Aengus Wanderlust On tap at Ellyn's Tap & Grill in Glen Ellyn, IL. as a 5 oz. serving, showing a clear, light straw color, with a good deal of rising, effervescent bubbles that didn't produce any head or lacing. The nose was a sweet, slightly ripened scent of apple, with a touch of spice as ginger. Light bodied, with good carbonation, the taste was similar, adding a bit of pear, and decent tartness & tanginess. Finished crisply. Wednesday, September 13, 2017

mcberko	2.9 Wandering Aengus Calville Blanc d'Hiver On tap at PIB 2017, pours a clear blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings out light Riesling, some gentle acidity and low-medium sweetness. Flavour is bone dry, with tons of white wine, light wood, and medium acidity. Zero sweetness on the finish. Pleasant and dry on the finish with decent puckering character. Decent. Tuesday, June 27, 2017
mcberko	2.9 Wandering Aengus Watermelon Gose Cider On tap at PIB 2017, pours a cloudy blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings out light lacto, some watermelon and light apple acidity. Flavour is moderately sweet, with subdued watermelon character and some light crisp apple acidity. Not getting anything resembling a gose. Refreshing but cheap and too artificially sweet. Meh.

thedm	3.4 Wandering Aengus Oaked Dry Cider This bottled Cider from a beer bar poured a very small sized head of foamy finely sized white colored bubbles that were quickly diminishing and left behind a softly carbonated transparent golden yellow orange colored body and a poor lacing. The mild aroma was red apple. The crisp mouth feel was tingly at the start and at the finish. The nice flavor contained notes of golden apple red apple and green apple. A decent one that I would consider drinking again. Friday, October 14, 2016
rumproasts	3.6 Wandering Aengus Wickson Single Varietal bottle. Golden with small head. Super tart apple flavor with just a bit of funky yeast notes. Very interesting and enjoyable, but it would be hard to drink more than a glass of this. Tuesday, September 13, 2016
rumproasts	3.4 Wandering Aengus Oaked Dry Cider bottle. Golden with small head. Tart apple. As you’d expect from the name, it’s very dry and acidic. Like the Wickson, I’d have a hard time drinking more than a single glass of this. Tuesday, September 13, 2016
rumproasts	3.5 Wandering Aengus Bloom bottle. Golden with small head. Aboverage cider with a solid balance of sweet and tart apple. Not terribly distinctive, but well done. Tuesday, September 13, 2016
onceblind	4.1 Wandering Aengus Wanderlust Crystal clear light straw, no head. Clean and gently fleshy Apple aroma, lightly tart. Big bright flavor that’s gently tart and has a nice clean Apple flavor through it, gently tart but not puckering or green-Apple-y, but not just plain red apple either. Intricately complex for being just a regular cider. Cideries, take note! This is exceptional. Neither dry nor sweet. Perfect balance. Saturday, September 10, 2016
onceblind	3.2 Anthem Hops Clear light golden hue with no head, and a citrusy earthy almost minty hop nose on top of a sweet fleshy red apple aroma. Crisp and dry body with mellow Apple sweetness combined with a grassy and slightly piney hop flavor that has very low bitterness, just mild hop flavor. Saturday, September 10, 2016
Dogbrick	3.2 Anthem Hops Sample at Stone World Bistro & Gardens in Escondido. Clear yellow color with a thin white head that dissipates quickly to an outer ring. Spotty lace. Apples and hops in the nose. medium body with flavors of apple and mild floral hops. The finish is fruity with an apple cider aftertaste. Slightly above average overall. Wednesday, September 7, 2016
onceblind	3.8 Anthem Pear Clear bright golden with a very thin white cap. Bright pear and earthy booze funk on the nose. Smooth and delightfully sweet on the palate that’s got some pear, sugar, and a light appley backbone. Crisp yet sweet and playful, but a little one dimensional. Not bad by any means, actually quite damn good. Tuesday, September 6, 2016
Zeswaft	3.5 Anthem Cherry Cider Bottle. Semi-dry. Cherry is subtle but there. Not a sugary cherrycider by any means. Crazy drinkable and refreshing. I’m thoroughly enjoying it. Saturday, August 27, 2016
altonbrownd	3.2 Anthem Pear [24/12/15] Bottle from Clackamas Town Center: Golden body. Nose is floral, apples. Taste is sweet, pears, fruits. Tart in the finish. Friday, August 26, 2016

littlebond	3 Anthem Cherry Cider Wednesday, August 10, 2016
Intricate08	2.7 Anthem Pear Light pear aroma, but not overwhelming like many other perries. Not much else picked up, however. Pours almost clear, with no head. Complex taste, but remains balanced. Not too sweet, which is a fatal flaw for many offerings with pear. Very refreshing, crisp, light. Monday, August 1, 2016
ChainGangGuy	3.3 Anthem Pear Appearance: Pours a very clear, scantly yellow body with some stray white suds. Smell: Sweetish, lightly tart-scented pear. Taste: A one-two pear apple flavor, lightly sweet, lightly tart and not really that different from just about any other of these products out there. Lightly crisp close. Mouthfeel: Light-bodied. Medium carbonation. Overall: It’s fine. Really, it’s fine. Nice summertime refreshment albeit nothing altogether special or memorable. Saturday, July 23, 2016
