On tap in Vancouver. Aroma is soft apple, barely there. Has an okay gold body but no foam. Flavour is adequate apple juice with white wine hints. Mouthfeel is medium, a little sugary. This is an okay cider, not memorable but certainly drinkable.

On tap. Pours a clear pale yellow with a thin, fizzy, white head that fully dissipates. Sweet, mild aroma of apple juice. Sweet flavour of red apples with a dry, tart finish. Light body with a watery texture and fizzy carbonation.

Draft - Sweet green apple. Clear gold with no head. Sweet apple and a sweet dry finish. Pretty sweet but nice and dry in the finish.

On tap at Railway Club, pours a clear pale yellow with a medium white head. This is basically long Strongbow -- cheap sweetened artificial apples on the nose and palate. Not overly offensive, just cheap and weak. Not good.

A light golden cider with a thin white head. In aroma, lightly tart apples, with light funk. In mouth, a sweet overcarbonated cider, watery and light, run of the mill. Tasted Nov. 6 2009 at Ottawa Wine and Food Show.

2010-03-17, draught at Raven Pub, North Vancouver, 5-3-5-2-10=25
Blond color. Sweetish cidery aroma. Normal cider flavor, with a light acidity, but the residual sweetness seems to be due to sweeteners... The final is therefore rather disturbing.

2008-07-27, draught at Ship and Anchor, Calgary, 5-2-6-3-11
Light blond color. Light apple aroma, a bit sour. There is very light apple flavor, and a quite high sourness, citric. Refreshing.

Pale, dull. Has a medium sweet character, light commercial apple. Pretty simple but for a mainstream cider no off notes and reasonably drinkable.
