From a can very pale yellow with a white head that immediately fades. Nose is permeating apple cider. A closer sniff yields too many off putting spices on the olfactory. First taste is apple. Not many ill effects of overly fermented apple cider, remains sweet. Hides the higher alky content well, tho it does tend to warm the tummy a little. The spices in this are not as bad as the nose would indicate, yes they are there but not in your face. I tend not to like vanilla in my brews but I can just barely perceive vanilla in this one. Not bad overall, but it is a little on the sweet side. Not much cinnamon. I guess I like my apple pie a little more tart than this.

Reddish orange with a medium sized soapy head that faded quickly. Tart and dry with strawberries and a pleasant hot pepper note that did not overwhelm. Long hot pepper finish. Medium body. Pleasant.

Pours lightly hazy very pale yellow and smells of citrus, lime, agave, and apples. The flavor is tart lime, citrus, and agave. Surprisingly the apple is pretty buried. I tried adding a little tequila partway through it as the text on the can suggests. Ehhh. Not bad but to me it was not improved and is better on its own.

Pours clear pale orange. The aroma is of chocolate, cherries, and yes, maybe some apple. It tastes very sweet. The cherry and chocolate are there. It’s alright though I’d have liked more tartness or less sugar. But it’s called “cherry cordial”. I suppose “very sweet” should be expected.

12oz can on 16th January 2022, sat around my daughters pool in Laguna Hills. It's red and clear, fruity berry flavours.

Single 12oz can from TJs. Mojito glass @home. Quick splash & fade results in a peachy, mostly clear pour. Smells like papaya + strawberry + acidic lemonade + chalk. Super tart & forgiving of all other flavors. Some mellow strawberry jam, apples barely have a pulse, yeasties on the finish. Lemonade contents aren't specific, but I get malic acid & powdered lemonade mix. I wouldn't have guessed the beet sugar, but it comes off like dissolved Sweet Tarts. Very carbed, very tart, only a little sour, abv barely registers. Very drinkable. Barely a cider. Who cares?
