Very pale, neutral apple nose and flavor, a little candy sweet. Unremarkable but drinkable enough.

Bottle at home in NH, shared with Dad. Pours clear, very pale with a light, fizzy head. Apple juice nose. Mild sweet flavor, faint dryness, bit of apples and mild dankness. Light bodied with fine carbonation. Mild dry finish. Just sweet enough with a decent apple character.

Not much aroma but what is detected is rateher clean, sweet and dry. Reminds me a little of K cider or possibly a higher quality hornsby. Fairly friendly yet a little unrefined. on the palate. Comes across a little processed at times. Decent carbonation thru out session. Yes, a little rude on the finish for a cider.

Poured into a pint glass. Soapy head. Clear, cream soda color. Smells of still water, faint apple juice, & Canada Dry Ginger Ale. Taste is mostly just mildly sweet apple chips mixed with a little white grape juice & sloppy alcohol. Half sour, mild tartness. Carbonation is just strong enough. It dries up on the blank finish. Sulfites are mostly in check. Better then Magner’s. Better then average cider.

Pours clear pale gold with a moment of bubbly white head. The aroma is moderate in strength and emits some green apples, a sense of white wine and a bit of alcohol chemicals. The taste is a bit apple-y with mostly semi ripe mixed with ripe apples to give it a bit of apple tartness and apples sweetness. Midway and into the finish it really dries out and takes on a bit of a white wine fruitiness. Decent stuff creating a nice balance between sweetness and dryness.

Sort of pear juice color with a slight white head. Aroma of crisp apples. Tastes like greenish apples. Near medium body with a sweet/tart impact. If you want a cider, this is not a bad choice.

12 ounce bottle courtesy of a friend. Pours a pale yellow color with a thin head. Poor head retention and lacing. The aroma is tart apples. Very sweet and tart apple taste. Medium bodied with a sticky feel.

Very pale straw. Dead flat...what is this? Light apple and glue aroma. Quite spritz, with a vague plasticy apple note. Quite tart in the finish, from added acids. One of the worst ciders I’ve ever had.

Perry-like apple aroma, slightly doughy and almost buttery. Clear, light golden color. Fantastic balance and even tastefully salty. Hearty for a cider. Fair amount of carbonation. Listed ABV of 4.6% is suspect; mine seemed considerably less potent. Highly recommended.
