Easy drinking apple cider with a unique balanced taste. Pleasant sparkling sweetness with a fruity and sour balance for a very refreshing drink.

0.33l bottle, distributed by Carlsberg Croatia. Pale yellow body with steady streams of carbonation and a tiny white head that went away fast. Distinct appley nose, like apple juice. What the fuck... apple juice mixed with vodka, sweet, almost sticky, trace acidity near the end to give it some semblance of drinkability. The ingredients list on this one says 30% apple wine (great, why is this on the site?) as the sole source of alcohol... I dread to think what that tastes like, if alcohol’s this bad in the heavily diluted version that is this "cider". Oh, it’s coloured by caramel too. Almost an epic fail, with the acidity saving it from that status. I mean, I’ve had cider of this type in Finland and Estonia and those were, if crap, quite drinkable and tasty for the aberrations that they are. This doesn’t manage to achieve even that. The only cider I can remember being worse than this is Blackthorn, which I overrated I guess. Ah, well.

Can, 4.7%. Sweet apple soft drink aroma. Clear golden colour, no head. Sweet flavour, tastes like apple candy. Quite sweet, but somehow OK balanced. Better than expected, but gets extremely sweet after some sips.

Bottle 33 cl. Clear yellow with a bubbly dissipating white head. Aroma of apple and cinnamon. Medium body, very sweet and artificial apple notes - very sugary indeed. No apple acidity whatsoever. Even for a commercial cider this is pretty bad. 160909

Bottled. A light golden cider - very sparkling. The aroma is refreshing of green apples. The flavor is very sweet with strong notes of green apples with hints of wood in the finish, but the sweetness also stays and makes it a bit cloying - very simple, just a summer drink for the young.

Pale blond color. Light aroma of green apples, tastes like sparkling apple juice (the one you can find in Switzerland). Low league.

can, 33cl. appears clear light yellow, small head that quickly disappears. apple aroma, no alc. flavor is apple juice, but you can sense the alc somewhere. alc. well hidden. flavor is sweet "mature" apples. my first cider rating, prior to now i’ve mostly tasted low alc. cider. basically and overall it tastes like sweet apple juice, with soda, and a hint of alc. looking forward to more ciders to enhance my sense of diversity.
