Super clear golden coloured body with no head at all to speak of, nor even any movement at all. Aroma of pure fresh apples with some honey, a lot of yeast and bread notes with a dash of vinegar and funk noticeable. Light-bodied; Sharp vinegary flavour with some lemons and yeast noticeable, but the most noticeable components are apple cider vinegar coupled with some yeast, bread, alcohol, grain and more vinegar and sour elements. Aftertaste shows some more acidic and soured green apples with a touch of canella and perhaps a drop of nutmeg in here, but this really is about vinegar balanced with apples and added in here with some yeast and the alcohol is noticeable towards the very end. Overeall, I'm not sure quite what the fuss (at least in terms of price) is with this, aside from the fact that it's made in town (or at least the address says so), but this was far more expensive than I typically would have bought for a cider, especially, but one that I will not pay again. I sampled this twelve ounce can purchased from Whole Foods in Pentagon City (Arlington), Virginia on 09-December-2017 for US$3,99 sampled at home in Washington in front of the store on 10-June-2018.

Many thanks to Erzengel for sharing! A clear golden cider. Aroma of mild sweet fruity apples, soft tart apples and sulfit. Taste of mild sweet and riped apples, sulfits, dry fruits.

Many thanks to nimbleprop for this can. Smooth sour rich intense cider aroma in the nose. The cider starts intense and rich. Lots of tart cider apples, sourish sulfur from the typical Basque apples. Fruity and dry, tannins on the tongue, rich and fruity with a great apple-fruity sourish sulphur aftertaste. Very nice and deep, rich and very dry. Nice one.

Draft pour at Snallygaster 2017. Poured a hazy yellow color with a small white head. Aroma was heavy vinegar notes, sour. Light apple. Flavor was heavy balsamic and white wine vinegar. Tart. Perhaps a little too harsh, could use a little bit of evening out to balance the tartness with the cider itself. Otherwise, pretty good.

Draft at ANXO. Clear deep golden, still. Bright fruit aroma. Taste is very fruity, light tannins, tart dry finish. Delicious.
