Super clear and glassy looking pure golden coloured body with a short-lived pure white head that fades like soda, of course, but some larger bubbles rising from the bottom. Aroma of very sweet and seemingly cloying sugars and caster sugar notes that have honey, sprinkles and vanilla all here as well, at least in the nose, with some apples here as well, but the sugars are way stronger. Light-bodied; Strongly effervescent with a bigger apple and even pear kick that shows towards the front, but the end is definitely overtaken by the cloying and deep sugars that come and linger. Aftertaste shows more of the same with sort of a cake batter like flavour, but it's the cloying sugars without any sour or even tart apple flavours that could help balance the mix, with the sugars running wild. Overall, a decent at best cider that is way too sweet and cloying for it's own good and while the cake-like notes are here, this is too much for me, and I like the flavour, typically! I sampled this sixteen ounce pint-sized can, purchased from Trader Joe's in Falls Church (Skyline), Virginia on 25-June-2022 for US$3,50 sampled while hiking Shenandoah National Park on 10-July-2022.
