12oz clear single from Total Wine in Vegas. Short 10oz glass back @ the hotel. Lots of junk left at the bottom. Do I swirl? Still sort of hazy without. Looks like a mix of beer & Orange Fanta. Short, lacy head. Mild bitter orange nose, similar to a blood orange Pellegrino soda, just not as intense. Taste is malic tart, mixed flavors of orange & white wine. Surprisingly bitter & lingering orange pith. Apples are plenty tannic, but overall just background noise as the orange is really bold, mostly unsweet & adult. Carbonation is a little low, slight slickness but not from sugar. ABV is on point. Surprisingly good.

Clear 12oz bottle from one of the Total Wine places in Vegas. 10oz rounded glass back at the hotel. Weak soapy head, clear, color is a mix of peach & watermelon. Smell is white sugar & mellow berry compote. Taste is mostly raspberry upfront, with some decent tart apple in the background. Tolerably sweet, soda texture, but lacking any complexity. Meh.

Klar gul farge med hvitt skum. Servert i glass med isbiterbog sugerør. Lukter egentlig lite. Men kjenner noe av ananas og eple. Lett drikkelig cider som minner mer om rusbrus/leskedrikk. Ananas.

This cider has a pleasant apple led aroma. The flavor is lightly sweet with a rich apple flavor that’s not too sugary. It’s not boozy either. It’s full flavored and well balanced, the best Ace cider I’ve had.

Pours pinkish with an aroma that’s full of guava. The flavor is also guava led. It’s not too sweet and has a pleasant tartness.

Pours clear gold into a tulip. White head with little retention recedes to hug rim. Sour apple aromas. Crisp with light, sweet apple upfront turning to tart dry apple skin in the medium length finish.

Stovepipe can from Winco. 2021 vintage. Aroma is apples, floral, vanilla, a hint of wood. Pours crystal clear deep golden with a collapsing off white head. Taste is moderately tart and fairly sweet, finishing dry. More depth than is typical with mass market ciders.
