Sampled on draft this cider poured a fizzy light honey color with a medium sized foamy white head that faded quickly and left no lacing. The aroma was lightly musty, phenolic and medicinal. The flavor was tangy and medicinal with tanning and faint vague fruits. Long medicinal finish. Medium body. Not good.

Sample at 101BK Westerville during the "Mid Week Beer Geek Features" event on 12/20/2017. Clear reddish-pink color with a thin pinkish-white head that evaporates quickly to an outer ring. Spotty lace. Aroma of cranberry, spice and malt. Light-bodied with flavors of cranberry, citrus and mild spice. The finish is mildly tart with a cranberry aftertaste. Decent overall.

tap at Books & Brews in Carmel - Pours clear gold and smells of apples and to a lesser extent cherries. The flavor is sweet with apples and cherries and a little tartness. Lively palate. It's average at best.
