Bottle @ Haket. Pours clear reddish deep golden with a small sparkling offwhite head that doesn’t leave any trace on the glass while dissipating. Smell is fruity with a nice mix of sweet mealy red apples and sour green apples, red berries (cranberries), minerals and orange peal. Taste is tiny sweet, sour and fruity. Mouthfeel is crisp, sparkling, dry, tart, berry skin astringent and light bodied. Finish is sour with sour green apples, cranberries, minerals, leather and orange peal. Tasty simple fruity cider with a suiting acidity. --- Beer merged from original tick of B. Nektar Cranberry Orange Zest Cider on 16 Jun 2015 at 21:56 - Score: 7. Original review text: Solid acidity.

Bottle. Clear deep ruby liquid with faster dissipating pink head. Aroma of cranberries, orange peel, apples, almonds and sweet alcohol. Taste is dry and light sour cream with notes of cranberries, apples and light sweet alcohol. Light to medium bodied with low to medium carbonation. Pretty tasty.

Bottle. Pours a clear cherry-aid type color with a thin bubbly head that dissipates quickly and completely. Aroma has lots of dry apple with cranberries and just a touch of citrus. Flavor is cranberry forward with a biting dry apple underlying.
Damn good. Tart cranberry and green apple sweetness with lightly bitter orange zest flavors. Very smooth and drinkable.
