Sampled from a 12 oz bottle this cider poured a dark amber color with a trace of a white head. The aroma was sharp, a bit boozy and had an off applejuice note. The flavor was harsh rancid apple and a touch of spice. Tart and vinegary finish. We nicknamed this one "Woodsuck".

Bottled. A golden cider with a lazing a beige head. The aroma is dominated by alcohol as well as prunes - weird for a cider. The falvor is again domintated by alcohol, but combined with a bit of apples and prunes. Leading to a dry slightly tart finish. Not to my liking.

Pours with a ultra pale, fizzy, yellow, filtered body from the clear bottle (that mentions that it is less than 1% actual apple)... Aroma of baked apple, sugar...tons and tons of sugar, artificial sweetener, citrus zest, play-doh, gelatin and plastic. Taste is sickly sweet with plastic, sweetener, cardboard, fake apples and more plastic. Fizzy and dry. I love ciders, but hate this fake apple soda crap!

12 oz. bottle. Oh, what am I supposed to think of a cider mixed with carbonated water with sugar added. A thin line between this and Zima. Pale yellow with a few bubbles in the glass. Smells like overly sweetened apple juice. Tastes like a wine spritzer with apple flavor. Cloyingly sweet, just a touch of alcohol to give a welcome buzz and decide to wash out you palate with a regular beer.

Bottle: Light apple presence and a bit sweet. Some tart in the flavor, but retains a mostly sweet apple feel. Nice crisp level of carbonation and even a bit dry.
