Can. Nose is apples, spice, sweet, ripe fruit, light citrus hops. Fruity flavor, tart apples, well carbonated and very juicy. The hops come through but lightly. Very solid drinker.

Bottle: Poured a light golden color cider with good carbonation. Aroma of fresh apple notes with light funky notes with some oak also discernable. Taste is also a mix of apple juice with some light funky notes and subtle oak flavours. Light residuals sugar notes. Interesting experience but drinkability is lower than I was expecting.

Bottle: Poured a golden color cider with nice carbonation. Aroma of light sweet apple notes is pleasant. Taste is a mix of fresh apple notes with some residuals sugar even though finish si mostly dry. Body is about average. Well-made cider with no chemical or fake tasting notes and good drinkability.

Bottle at home kicking off weekend. Fine looking cider. Nose is tart dry apples and light hops. The hops gives this sligtly zippy and rustic palate. Tastes of dry apples, some hay, wood, faint woodsy hops. Tasty beverage.

Draught at Friendly Toast, 2/27/16.
Bright waxy-golden body has just a touch of haze and plentiful carbonation creating a brief white cap of bubbles.
Appleskin, applesauce and some slightly tarter elements but generally quite controlled on the fermentation, it seems, with light vanilla and low phenolics. No alcohol or flaws.
Lightly sweet up front, rather delicate actually, with slightly loose carbonation leading to a significantly more dry finish that highlights dry apple skin, bits of tartness and just a touch of lactic-like character. No alcohol. Pretty good for a standard offering, can’t really expect their flagship cider to be funky, bone dry and such, as I like my ciders to be. Still, it’s too bad the general taste seems to prefer medium-dry, off-sweet, off-dry, demi-sec, whatever term you want to use. Let’s get more cideries with dry flagship ciders.

Draught at Area Four, 2/24/16.
A lightly hazy (chill haze), very light golden color shows plentiful carbonation.
Golden apple-like fruitiness in the nose is quite enjoyable, as no alcohol makes an appearance, nor any candy-sweet character. Don’t get the ginger much in the nose, which is fine, rather a fresh yeast and more spicy phenols and light apple pie.
The ginger is rather prevalent in the flavor, however, but very enjoyably so, mixing with the apple character and remaining authentic and though the beer is on the sweeter side, it’s never cloying. Brisk carbonation helps and there’s just a hint of tartness from the apples. Feels like there’s an herbal character here, as well, even though there isn’t. Very cocktail-like. I guess it could still be a touch more dry, but it’s surprisingly nice, if you like ginger, which I really do.
