Sampled from a 12 oz clear bottle this cider poured a dark yellow-gold color with a trace foamy white head that faded instantly and left no lacing. The aroma was tangy, sugar and sweet apple. The flavor was sweet apple, a bit of apricot, sugar and apple juice. Long finish. Medium body. Pretty tasty.

bottle - This cider smells of ripe apples and sugar. It tastes of sweet apples. Too sweet. It’s drinkable, but they really overdid the sugar, in my opinion. It’s okay.

Reviewed from notes.
This was poured into a pint glass.
The appearance was a hastily yellow with streams of carbonation rising a decent pace.
The smell had apples in a slight sour sharp way and ending up becoming vinous.
The taste was sweet and tart apple in a vinous sort of way. Bad tart apple/vinous aftertaste and super dry finish.
On the palate, this one sat about a light on the body with no where close to having any good sessionability about it. I need water after this.
Overall, wow, what a bad cider, just when I was warming up to some of these, I go and have this. I wouldn’t touch this with a ten foot pole.

Bottle: Pours clear, bubbly, orange-gold with a few, sparse, soapy head bubbles. Fresh, sweet apple and peel scent. Sweet, almost tart apple, sugar taste. Starts out bright and biting....but it’s just too sweet overall... Gets a little too clingy. Would like it much better if it was drier.

Bottle same ABV listed as Hard Crisp Cider. I assume this is an alternate name or renaming, I will find out. Pours a clear yellow color with some bubbles. A light nose of floral apples. Sweet, at times quite sweet, some honeycrisp elements here, light vanilla. Dry at times. Good.
