Can. Poured a tan color with a medium sized fluffy white head that faded quickly and left no lacing. The aroma was egg white, phenol and faint berry. The flavor was dryish with faint berry, phenol and astringency. Medium length finish. Medium body.

Draft. Apple, light blueberry, and light hay aroma. Amber. Moderately sweet apple/blueberry and moderately bitter herbal hay flavor. Decent body. Not bad.

On tap. An amber pour with a white foamy ring. Red apple aroma. Flavor is similarly red apple, sugary sweet and tart. Juicy. Pretty good.

can - Pours light amber with minimal head and a tart apple aroma. The flavor is on the dry side for ciders. The green apple is nice. Any blueberries in there were undetectable to me. Tart and pretty good. It’s very similar to the other ciders I’ve had from Vander Mill.

Big 16 oz can from vintage. Pour is orangish and clear. Taste is fairly dry. Not repulsive, just fairly dry. Does have some fruit in there to ease it up a little. Not bad, seems pretty decent for a high alky cider. Quite fizzy on the tongue. Yes, not bad as the session continue. At times, comes across like an alky pop malt beverage. Yes, not bad overall. A tad of vinegar in thar at times near the finish.

Can. Pours a clear deep amber with a purple hue and a white head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has rich blueberry with a bit of apple and a slight bitterness. Flavor has an odd blueberry and apple combination with a touch of butterscotch.

Can. From notes. Apple with a decent hint of berry. Good, but not great. That’s it.
