750 ml from Cigarette City, Seabrook for the price of $9.99. Clear gold no head Aroma prickly pear, honey nuance with of course apples.
Flavor shows me prickly pear, apple juice sweetness, with a light acidic note toward the back. The mouthfeel is bone dry, cotton mouth texture. Real nice to drink.

Paid $6.99 for a 22 oz bottle at Smily’s in Dover, NH. Sparkling clear gold without head. Aroma is Apple juice and MacIntosh variety apple.
The flavor is very refreshing and clean. Kind of tart and juicy. ManIntosh meets Granny Smith. Real nice cider.

650 ML bottle thanks to radarsock, thanks! Crystal clear yellow, fast dying head that left nothing in the wake. Aroma is fresh sliced apple and pear skins with pale malt ( although I know malt is not in this) it’s the essence of it.
Mild sugar with a crisp, fresh juicy apple finish. Nicely dry texture with a real clean finish. Very fresh. Enjoyable.
