Very hazy, beautiful golden coloured body with a very thin, off-white head that obviously fades fast and leaves nothing up top, but the hazy, golden in itself is great for a cider! Aroma of crisp, grassy and very pungent apple notes with a faint hit of soft herbal notes that cause a bit of dryness and some yeastie elements, but of course, this is about the apples. Light-bodied; Dry and very crisp apple flavours start with a nice soured and tart flavour profile that hits nicely at the end, with a great sweetness from honey and brown sugars near the end, and a faint dose of yeast and a little of the alcohol, too. Aftertaste is clean, very sweet, super apple-y and showing a good level of dryness to counter the sugars. Overall, a very nice - especially from the look - cider that hits almost exactly as you'd want, with some nice complexities from the dryness, subdued spice and sugars, but this is still easy-drinking and enjoyable! Great to sample and well worth trying if you like ciders and can find it! I sampled this twelve ounce can, purchased from Wegman's [grocery] in Tyson's Corner (Vienna), Virginia on 29-October-2021 for US$1,99 sampled at my house here in Washington on 24-November-2021.
