Single from their AVL taproom. Clear, bright, pale pink, sparkling. Like cheap rosé. Smells of grape must, perfume, Seven Up, preservatives, burning sugar, plastic; Stuffy. What does the color pink tastes like? Taste is Seven Up citrus flavor, malic acid, extra sugar, cheap wine, something resembling a little watermelon rind, bitter something, preservatives. There's a certain foulness that reminds me of Woodchuck. Syrupy sweet, soda consistency & carbonation. If you drink it fast enough it isn't that bad. Is that a positive? Not even trying.

Crowler for $2 at JRs, nice find. Pinkish yellow orange. Clear, no head. Mild sweet fruity smell, almost nonexistent, can't really tell if its watermelon or not. First taste is rather friendly, no hint of artificial favors in this one. Good co2 considering this crowler was canned on the 8th. Goes down way too easy, I don't think I can sense any alky in this what so ever. A little scary, you may drink a ton of this before you know what hit you. Lots of unfermented sugar in this one. Comes across more like a soda pop. Smooth, bubbly and easy fer sher. Whew. Quite tasty and refreshing to boot. Good co2 sizzle on its way down the gullet. Quite likeable overall. I'm thinking jolly rancher hardtack candy on this one. I'm not a fan of watermelon brews but this stuff is probably one of the best watermelon brews I've ever had. Nice job BR! I just hope the combination of sugar and alky doesn't annoy my tummy. Not bad. I'm diggin it.

Surprisingly dry for a watermelon cider. Still very refreshing though.

$1.67 bottle, Trader Joe's. Clear pale pink, no head. Apple, dust, watermelon rind... nose is quite light. Flavor is candy... apple, watermelon... some dust, some actual apple juice, but pretty much candy.

Jolly rancher apple nose, not overly strong. Clear pink. Apple candy, fairly sweet. Light body, easy carbonation.
