Can from Tasty Beverage. Pint glass @ home. Clear, seltzer-ish, watermelon color. Smells of apple cider dregs, fortifying spirits, plastic, red berry. Not really cranberry. Taste is thin, tart, sugar-free cherry Jello, booze, dead champagne yeast. Moderate carbonation & a lingering bit of plastic make this a dud. At least it isn't sweet.

Pint can, WW. Clear ruby, no head, though some carbonation is evident. Nose is berry and apple, light soapiness. Bitter raspberry, slighty funky apple, green hops. Not the slightly bit sweet. Not sure how I feel about this. It's well made, but I just want a slight hint of sweetness.

Perfectly clear bright pink coloured body with a fast-dying pure white head that starts like a soda, but dies quickly. Aroma of yes, strawberries, apples, pears, light spices and tons of ginger - very nice throughout. Light-bodied; Strong very fruity strawberry and fruit flavours dominate with a bunch of apple and pear notes, showing some sweetness and a lot of dry and spicey kicks from the ginger and allspice and coriander seed which seems present here. Aftertaste show the apples, pears, very light grassy and floral component, spicey side and ending with a nice fruity sweetness, especially at the end. Overall,ย  a nice and very spiced cider which shows well throughout, especially at the end with a proper balance and a not-boring profile. The ginger and other light spices really show through here, in a good way! I sampled this twelve ounce can purchased from Whole Foods in Arlington (Pentagon City), Virginia on 10-March-2020 for US$2,99 sampled at home in Washington on the same day, 10-March-2020.ย
