Hard Cider - Sweet
Washinton apples blended with real vanilla, creating what is best described as an adult's all natural cream soda.

Short pour at the Ft. Worth location. Light to medium gold pour. Soft vanilla ice cream nose. Taste is more apple, more ice cream, more balanced than the imperial. Less artificial vanilla. Faintly tart apple base, less acid than the imperial. Comes off like an easy cream soda which is very nostalgic & easy to drink. Didn't hate this.

12oz can from New Colony. White wine, dish water pour, clear, still. Vanilla is apparent from the first whiff of the freshly opened can. Taste brings more vanilla flavors, apples way in the background. Smooth and sweet. Really tasty.

12 oz. Aroma is apples, vanilla, wet stone, match heads, floral. Pours crystal clear pale golden with a quickly collapsing head. Taste is sweet and tart with a strong vanilla presence. Softly carbonated. Really tasty.

Can - Apple and some nice rich vanilla notes. Clear pale gold with a small white head. Vanilla and light apple with a pleasant sweet finish. Nice.

Draft pour at Locust. Very light, clean and clear. Transparent. Aroma is true to the vanilla tag. Very cream soda heavy on the flavor. Takes over the apple. Like a less carbonated cream soda. Flavorful and refreshing. Unique and fun offering. Tasty stuff.

On tap at Locust, pours a clear blonde. Aroma brings out sweet vanilla bean upfront, with gentle apple acidity. Flavour is very sweet, with cloyingly sweet vanilla beans. Way too sweet but fun to drink in very small amounts.
