The chill of winter sends some running for the mountains, while others prefer to stay cozy in the comfort of the great indoors. Whichever way you enjoy winter, this cider is built to get you through. Aged in premium french and traditional american oak, Winter Chill brings a rich depth of apple flavor with hints of vanilla and Oak throughout.

Sweet apple aroma and flavor. Light brown. In addition to the apple, the aroma has vanilla which I assume is from the oak.

Courtesy of fishingnet. Pours gold with thin white head that vanished pretty quickly. The aroma is of apples, booze and vanilla. The taste is both smooth and refreshing bringing up notes of apples, smooth mild oak wood notes and vanilla. It ends dry and with a thin body.

Courtesy of fishingnet. Once in a while, a good cider come across a tasting, bringing some freshness, away from the grains, etc. This one follows the growing trend of oak aging and it does it well. Aroma of subtle oak barrel , taste and aroma have lots of nice sugary apple with the nice addition of oak. Finish is dry and crisp. Good drinkable cider. It’s a cider, not much else to debate here.

12 oz green stubby bottle with a twist off cap. Nice apply aroma, very attractive without being overwhelming. Looks like a pale lager. Yummy initial taste bud sensations. but I like ciders so becareful how you interpret this rating. Can’t really taste any oak aging in there. Comes on like any other good woodchuck cider, fun and delicious. Very like-able. Good tingly carbonation. Could easily drink a sixer of these in a session. Goes down way too easy. Lovely fermented bubbly drink. Finish is a tad dry and I like that, does not appear to fruity. Overall a good pleasant brew. s8L2F3T9O18

Bottle. Pours a clear copper with no head or lacing. Aroma has notes of wood and light spices with some vanilla a touch of apple and corn sugar. Taste has Clear oak notes on top of woodchuck’s artifical cider taste, but the oak rounds it out decently well... Lowish drinkability as it can be a bit cloying after a while. Fizzy mouthfeel but not as overcarbonated as their other products. Water like mouthfeel.

More going on in the flavor with this cider. Its deep flavor of apples, vanilla, and earthyness mix for a wonderful cider. I wish the finish lasted longer but its still good.
