Can from Press. Shelton Bros sticker, hmm... Three weeks of chill time, pint glass @home. Jellied, mostly clear medium gold pour. Fizzy, marzipan soda head that lingers a little greasily. Very fresh, arrested, juicy apples with a distinct & inviting mango note. Juicy-sweet & honey-like upfront, it turns bitter-tart down the middle. Cherry skin, oak & Chisel Jersey bitterness. Only reason I can pick it out is because I've had at least three Chisel Jersey one-off bottles recently(plus the label made me go oh, yeah). Thick, a touch sticky, fizzled carbonation, too low abv. So yeah, a little pedestrian & easy, but full-flavored & gives a little something interesting. $5, imported, legit cider(Keeved!).
