My can is white with blue lettering. Smells mildly waxy apple. First taste is sweeter & somewhat tart. Not many ill effects in this one. Its sweet and now I'm wondering if the sweet stuff is going to eventually burn my gullet. Easy sweet taste, very easy on the palate. Decent co2. In the glass, yes, its surprisingly unfiltered, in addition to a near new england haze, there is even chunks floating around in my glass. Overall the flavor is kind and sweet, hard to tell there is alky in this. No ill effects yet. Did I say it was sweet? Well, yes, but not cloying, like so many other sweeter brews. Decent overall cider experience. Probably would not do anther, but it was a pleasant tick.

Draft at Old Rapp Taphouse. Poured a super hazy, bright orange color with a small, wispy head. Aroma was huge apple character. Light sweetness, semi-dry, touch earthy. Nice carbonation in this one. Really pleasant stuff.

Draught sample. Hazy yellow gold colour, no head and aroma of mellow fruity apple. Taste is sweet, fruity, apple, mellow, and light tart citric with just alittle tannin. Medium bodied, low carbonation, medium-drying finish. Nicely drinkable.

Pours hazy light yellow-gold. It smells of tart apples. The flavor is sweet green apples. It's not overly sweet though. Refreshing. Nice cider.

Pours a nice cloudy light apple juice color from a can. Aroma is interesting, funky, even a little light mold like a cheese rind or something. Flavor is a little less nuanced, a mostly sweet apple with a light funk in the background. Overall, would have preferred drier and a little funkier to make this be a really interesting cider. Good cider.

12 oz can. Cloudy apple juice colored pour with no head or lacing. Taste is tart granny smith apples, bordering on sour, with a very dry finish. Too dry for me.
