569ml/19.2oz odd-sized can from on of the Total Wines in Vegas 10oz glass back at the hotel. Soda pour, jelly cold light to medium gold. Stinky sulfur on the nose needs airing out. Eventually there's some old oak & veg. Taste is pretty dry, but not clean. It throws out odd yeast music, plastic/marzipan with fennel notes, veg, odd wood/barrel, super heavy sulfites. Cheap sugar boosted abv. Aspirin finish. Crispy soda carbonation, super boozy for it's single digits, harsh preservatives. Poor.

Stovepipe can from Winco. 2021 vintage. Aroma is apples, floral, vanilla, a hint of wood. Pours crystal clear deep golden with a collapsing off white head. Taste is moderately tart and fairly sweet, finishing dry. More depth than is typical with mass market ciders.

Bottle. big fruity nose, nice acidity to go with the fruit, chardonnay and wood, great full oily body with good carbonation. Like this.

750 ml screwcap black bottle, as Ace BlackJack Twenty One Premium Craft Cider Vintage 2015, from Vinmonopolet Randaberg. ABV is 9%. Golden colour, pours moderately sparkling with a shortlived white head. Fresh aroma of sweet Gravenstein apples. The flavour has also fresh notes of sweet and slightly acidic Gravenstein apples. Very good stuff.

On tap at Republic 7C. Pours a clear yellow gold with a white head that dissipates immediately. Aroma has sweet apple with a touch of bitterness and a wine dryness. Flavor has sweet apple upfront with a bit of acid but finish is strong with dry white wine finish.

Capped 750 from The Davis Beer Shoppe. Color is towards hazy perry. Aroma is a mix of apple and wine. Med minus body, but there’s body. Flavor is rather sweet/tart with a lot of oak. The wine aspect tends to overtop the cider IMHO. Pretty astringent. Finishes apple/grape/oak. And oak.
