Bottle from the mix 6 @Ingles. Literally running out of options down here. Pint glass @home. Clear, amber, beer-looking brew. Soft apple & brown sugar scent, mackintosh apples or thereabouts, vanilla derivative. Taste isn't offensive. Tastes like the sparkling Christmas apple wine your grandpa breaks out of the closet. Juicy eating apples, little to no tartness, some skin tannins, cooked sugar finish that isn't terribly sweet, but still too sweet with the lack of anything else. Very faint green bitterness. Surprisingly soft carbonation that could do better. Thin body that's mostly comprised of water & sugar. Zero complexity or backbone. Added acid, added sulfites. Boring, but not artificial or biologically terrible. Better than Woodchuck!

Clear yellow pour with light head. Mostly sweet with a hint of tart taste similar to other apple ciders such as Angry Orchard, Wood Chuck, and Strongbow.

Sampled on draft at Capitol City Brewing this cider poured an extremely pale yellow color with a small soapy white head that faded quickly and left no lacing. The aroma was sweetish apple juice. The flavor was sweet apple juice, honey and was a bit tangy. Medium length finish. Medium body. Solid.

4 oz pour on draft at Spacebar. Clear golden yellow with off-white head. Aromas of sweet apples. Tastes like sweet sugary apples. Light body with a dry finish. Solid if you’re looking for a cider on the sweeter side.

On tap at Bold Rock. Apples abound. sweet and sour - not exactly, but a bit of tartness as well as a bit of sweetness. Ordinary, but drinkable.
