Bottle, 0.33l. Cloudy pale yellow pour, one finger soapy white head. Short lasting, no lacing. Very fizzy, lots of visible carbonation. Sweet on the nose with apple and cinnamon notes. Thin body, medium carbonation. Light mouthfeel, watery texture. Mostly sweet taste with slight fruity tart. Sugary sweet, sticky mouthfeel. Dry. Aroma of fermented apple juice and cinnamon. Sugar, slight citrus tart. Candy aftertaste. Medium lasting finish. Not bad. A bit on the sweet side, personally I prefer more sour taste. Still, good cider, especially if you're a sweet-tooth.

Draft at Craft Room. Clearish yellow, white edge head. Very light dusty apple aroma. Taste is lightly sweet apple flesh. Plain but easy drinking

Bottle, thanks Tomislav! Greenish-golden clear body. Full, nice aroma, sweetish green apples, light tart notes. Light juicy taste, green apples, tart, dry, actually quite refreshing, on the vinuous side. Nice enough cider!

Tap at Craft Room. Greenish paaaale golden body, white head. Dry aroma, elder and dry apple notes. Hah... the taste is slightly too full, sweetish, complemented well by green apple notes. Solid stab at the sub-style, but this one needed to be slightly drier and better carbonated to fully work, nice anyway.

On tap at Zagreb Craft Beer Week. Pours cloudy golden, small white head. Apple, sweet, a lot of cinnamon, some light tartness. Too sweet for me, wish it was more like their regular cider.

Craft Room. The cider they made for making mulled cider really, but hey, one should try it on its own. Hazy golden body. Cookie-like apple-cinamon-strudel aroma, light banana. Sweetish cinnamon-apple taste, but not too sweet, light banana, actually quite balanced, but I wasn't as thrilled by it as with the other two they released recently. Still, another very well executed Buzdovan cider. These guys rock!

Craft Room, summer of 2017 as Buzdovan Red Apple Cider. Greenish colour. Fermented apple, fried apple, apple or pear brandy aromas. Light body, light carbonation, lasting finish. Very fresh, has this domestic feeling.

Clear golden body, white head. Pungent sweet banana & jam aroma, interesting. That lovely mix of apple and banana notes continues into the taste and damn this rocks overall, good carbonation too. Hats off Buzdovan, you make fantastic ciders!

On tap at ZCBW. Misty yellow body with a white head. Cinnamon blending with sweetish apple/banana notes, simply lovely. Mild, sweetish appley taste, more banana again, with very well integrated cinnamon - never being too heavy, which is quite an achievement. Simply put, a great spiced cider, that anyone would be proud of!!!
