Poured from the tap. Clear light amber with no head. Apple skin, very feint cherry, okay, nothing all that complex.

On tap at The Greater Good, pours a clear pale copper with a tiny white head. Aroma brings out crisp apple skins, accentuated by cherry, and a hint of wild yeast. Flavour is gently sweet, with cherry drop notes, light apple skins, and a hint of wild character. Medium sweet, with reasonable wild yeast character. Good, but not complex or elegant.

Bottled. Nose is very pissy, with cherries and apples bit mostly urinal cake, and also some birthday candles. Not completely unpleasant but a bit shocking. Rich cherry flavor, apples, grapefruit. soft, almost flat. A bit funky. Interesting and enjoyable.

(Sample from 500ml bottle, Bar Isabel, Toronto, Jan 13 2016) Pours nearly clear pale pinkish orange with a small whitish head without lace. Aroma of tart apples, some sour cherry flesh, pretty fruity overall with some sweetness and a bit of almost lacto-like acidity from the fruit. Flavour echoes the nose, lightly sweet apples and cherries with some acidity. Fruit is mostly flesh with a bit of skin for balance. Pretty bright and crisp, mineral, cleansing. Finish and aftertaste fairly dry, fruity, bit of sweetness and tartness. Very little yeast. Light-medium body with effervescent carb. Not that complex, cherry not intense, good easy-drinking fruit cider.

A lightly pinkish cider with aroma of tart apples, ground cherries, light Brett, light lactic notes, very nice. In mouth, a nice sweet tart apples with light cherry notes, light Brett and funk, light cork, very nice. On tap at Bar Hop Brewco.
