2009 stamped bottle. Pours with a long lasting (for a cider) frothy white head over an extremely pale body. Aroma of sulfur, CO2, dry and bitter apples (crab apples). Taste is light and sugary with a light bitter note and dry. Boring and a very bland uncomplex, cider. Not good. Dry to watery thin mouthfeel, over carbonated with large bubbles.

From tap at Pizza Port Solana Beach. Pours clear and pale greenish yellow with a fully diminished head. Citric pear aroma. Flavour is clean and crisp sweet pears with a nice lingering acidic/citric flavour into the finish. Ends quite fruity and citric. Nice, although I guess the heat at this place helped me enjoy this one more than I would have done anywhere else.

Crisp apple aroma. Very light golden color with lots of bubbles - not tiny ones though. Thin to medium bodied, with spritzy carbonation. The flavor is more ripe apple than cooked apple. A hint of standard soft cider. The finish is something like green apples. A pretty decent straight cider.

Bottle. The aroma is pear, much like sniffing a ripe bartlett. The color is water lightly tinged with gold. No head. Some tiny bubbles. Thin to medium bodied. Spritzy carbonation. The flavor starts with ripe pear, finishes with a slight sour like pear or apple skin. Quite clean, and very refreshing.
