On tap at Parrallel 49 in Vancouver. Has an aroma of good apple funk, in fact really good apple funk. Looks are just faint yellow and no head. Flavour is nice apple funk with some soft sugar hints. Mouthfeel is modest and kind of weak. Okay cider, nice wild character to it.

On tap at St. Augustine's with Sonnet. Pours a clear very pale golden with no head. Aroma is sour apples with slight sweetness. Tazte is crispy, very simple with some dryness. Vety refreshing and easy to drink. Quite pleasant.

On tap. Pours a light straw color with no head and medium carbonation. Aromas of freshly cut apples - not much though. Flavor likewise with grass up front then apples and light spice.

Fresh from tap at Merridale. Clear yellow green. Acidic, slightly vinegary nose. Sparkly and light on the palate. Straw after a rich flowery, grassy and light wooden note, nice balance of acid to sweetness. Wonderful drink.

Sampled on tap at the Alibi Room, pours a still clear yellow. Aroma of dry apples with a slight hints of tartness, no sugar. Flavour is pure green apples with a nice dry mouthfeel and only a hint of sweetness. Really well-balanced. Great cider.

Draught at St. Augustine’s, Vancouver, 6.9% ABV
Pale blond color; no head. Mild aroma of apple juice. The cider itself is not bad, with some apple fruitiness, dry but with light residual sweetness, with a refreshing sourness; unfortunately it also has a weird impression of baby care cream...

Light greenish-yellow colour. Aroma in redolent of sulphury, stank armpit. With light, sugar-coated apple. Thankfully, the flavour is much cleaner with a sweet apple taste and distinctive nutty note. Once you get past the nose, this is a pleasant, sweetish, simple pub cider.
