Can from guntown. Clear light pale. Off apple nose. First taste is mint and apple and then perhaps, just maybe a touch of lime. Oak? not sure but this is definitely a positive variation form most of the flavored ciders I've had. Goes down easy, plenty of co2 sizzling and cutting all the way down. It also tends to hide the alky content very well. Yea, quite tasty, impressed, better than expected. I don't think I can remember the last time when I found mint was so well balanced in a brew before.

Draught at Rybrew: pours hazy yellow with a white head. Aroma is light fruitiness, but generally light and mellow. Taste is sweet, lightly bitter, muddled. OK.

Bit light on the flavors but nice sipper nonetheless. Berry weekend vibes.

Hazy reddish-orange color with a thin white head that dissipates quickly to a sparse outer ring. Spotty lace. Aroma of citrus, hops and malt. Light to medium body with flavors of pomegranate, floral hop, citrus and bready malt. The finish is fruity with a short mild hop aftertaste. Decent overall.

12oz can from Tavour. White grape juice colored pour , spritzy head. Smoky aroma, tart notes, and for some odd reason, the zoo. Taste is smoky, rustic, a bit dry.

Perfectly clear pink and rose coloured body with an ultra-fast-dying off-white head, just like most ciders have. Aroma of bitter yeast, a bread, apples and a tart dose of cranberries, but not much sweetness, just a stronger pungent yeastiness than normal. Light-bodied; Strong apple flavours dominate with a touch of spices (anise and allspice) coming through to couple with the tart fruit and the relatively strong apple flavours. Aftertaste shows a good balance of tart and sweet notes with the cranberries holding up well to the sweet apples, but the spicey flavours have since left and any additional complexity is pretty much gone. Overall,  a tart and dry cider that shows fairly nicely, but could use a bit more tart fruit coupled with the slightly stronger sweet apple notes. Good to sample, but there are probably some better cranberry ciders that hit the marks a bit better than this one, but this isn't a bad option at all. I sampled this twelve ounce can purchased from Whole Foods in Arlington (Pentagon City), Virginia on 16-June-2020 for US$2,49 sampled at my house here in Washington on 22-June-2020.

Very clear, perfectly golden and copper coloured body with a nice thinnish one to two centimetre tall white and almost pink head. Aroma of bright soured and tart fruits with some apples, berries, cedar, spontaneously fermented/wild yeasts with a dash of foeder and bretty funk towards the end - very nice and incredibly complex in the nose! Light-bodied; Tart, soured, funky, yeastie, berry-y and very dry throughout with a lot of the spontaneously fermented notes and some dry cedar, but the apple and pear sweetness and soft malt elements are very strong as well and show quite well. Aftertaste is dry, very fruity, dry, complex, soured, tart and super easy-drinking with a lot of dry notes, but more of the wild, yeastie and funky elements that show throughout, in a good way. Overall, a complex and funky beer that hits all the right notes (minus the brine, that isn't here, really, just in a very small way) and is very easy-drinking, but has tons of flavours, especially soured and wild ones. Overall, a nice beer to sample, especially on a hot and summer day after just returning to the humid East Coast after being out west for 10 days! I sampled this twelve ounce can, purchased from the Department of Beer and Wine in Alexandria, Virginia on 17-May-2020 for US$1,97 sampled in my house here in Washington on 05-August-2020.

Bottle at the December Ratebeer DC Tasting. Poured a slightly ruby color with a small white head. Aroma was light red wine, tart cherries. Mild vinegar tartness. Pleasant, tart finish.
