Bottle from chalet in N Lima, nice place. I'm not sure about hops in cider, ruins it, no? So, its slightly hazy and pale, does this make it New England IPA Cider? Just asking. Smell is simply rude homemade apple cider, smells like my own homemade rude ass cider. Like an off apple sumthing. No sign of hops in the nose. Taste is cider fer sure and its not too bad. I thot there would be more hops that there is. Yes, some hops in there but it never gets over the cider effects, pretty good balance actually. Mostly apple cider with just a hint of green grapefruit rind, rotting old green grapefruit rind; but just a hint. No sign of anything really hoppy here. If you are thinking a tropical juicy hop, forget about this, you'll be disappointed. But for me? I'm glad its not a hop bomb, I truly despise overly hopped bomb brews so this aint too bad. Finish is simply normal sweet apple cider. Goes down fairly easy.

The Aromas are melons and apples. Flavors are like nose, sweet tart with carbonation Tang and a hint of hops. Not bad cider.

Bottle from Total Wine in Folsom, CA. Pours translucent perry color with a white bubble ring. Aroma seems tropical. With some apple. Med minus body. Flavor is mildly tropical and a bit tart. With time some appleskin flavor can be discerned. Interesting. Certainly good for the gluten avoiders.
