On tap at NC Cider Fest. Pale gold, clear, spirited pour. Earthy, creamy, soft & saline-like nose. Warming, rounded citrus, lingering floral, touch of paper oxidation, bitter sharp through & through. Really great.

Pour from a can at the 2016 YOX anniversary party at Old Ox. Poured a very lightly hazed yellow color with a fizzy white head. Aroma was sweet apples, light sweetness. Flavor was cider booze, with apple, light sweet notes. Okay, better than most other offerings around here these days.

16 ounce can from Downtown Wine & Gourmet, Harrisonburg, 8/17/14. Pours a golden color with just a touch of haze. Aroma of sweet apples with a mild bready note. The taste is tart apples, apple juice, mild vanilla and honey and a mildly sweet apple finish. Medium bodied. A little boring, but solid.
