Pint can from Festival Northland, 10/29/23. Clear amber, medium white head, poor retention. Aroma of brown sugar, white sugar, vanilla, apple. Taste is apple, cinnamon, brown sugar, vanilla. Thin. Meh.

Smells super sweet...like a sweet tart. It doesn't quite taste like a candy corn which I'm happy about because they are not good.
Tastes more like marshmallow...even the apple is hidden under all the sugar. Too sweet for me

A big fat pounder can for $2. Pour is clear pale yellah with a slight tint of orange. Looks like a pale lager without a head. Nose is volatile & sugary, its like a candy corn fer sher, considering I know what that stuff tastes like. I've ate a lot of that artificial bullshit when I was a kid and sortah enjoyed it. The taste is sugary, but avoids a cloying aspect, it just overrides any indication this is hard cider. Its simply a sugary candied alky drink, not sure how it could be a cider; its so candied in its presentation. Sugar, sweet with no indication of apple what so ever; it must have had the candy corn added after the fermentation. Otherwise it would have been a little more dry. On the finish, its all sugar, like some kindah soda pop malt beverage. There, you have it: A candy Halloween treat, dropped into your ratings bucket. Trick or treat!

Light gold pour. Thinnish foamy head. All vanilla nose and flavor. Caramel palate. This beer is very sweet.

Strong vanilla nose. Crystal clear amber.Sweet vanilla and apple. Light body, easy carbonation. Definitely sweet, but not syrupy. I thought I'd hate it, but it was pretty good.
