Super clear golden and pale ghostly white coloured body with a ultra fast-dying white head, like soda, of course. Aroma of dough, bread, light pears, apples, caster sugar, light lemons and a dash of flowers, but the dough especially and bread notes are the most pungent in the nose. Light-bodied; Very sweet, almost cloyingly so, pear and apple flavours show up at first with some bread and dough notes along with a hint of floral elements, but the sweetness is strong, as is a minor astringent quality at the end. Aftertaste is very sweet, almost hard to get down, with only a tiny bit of tartness to mellow this out, along with a hint of lemons and flowers, but this really all about the pears and sugars. Overall, a decent enough fruit-based cider that is too sweet and cloying for me, but the dough and bread notes provide an off-putting flavour to couple with the rich sugars. While I love pears, I'd definitely pass on this one again, given how many better ciders are out there. I sampled this sixteen ounce, pint-sized can, purchased from The SperryVille Corner Store in Sperryville, Virginia on 09-July-2022 for US$4,19 sampled in my hotel room here in Richmond, Virginia on 22-July-2022 after watching Miss Norah Jones play a concert with my wife and three kids.

Ginger aroma. Taste is very tart and gingery. So tart it’s almost sour, reminds me of ginger beer.

Crisp and clear light purple coloured body with a thinnish very light pink head that fades very quickly (obviously) and leaves nothing on top, after just a few seconds.Aroma of soured, tart blackberry and blackcurrant notes with a lot of tartness and even more sweetness with a tiny bit of wheat and body here and a touch of grasses as well and a bit of herbs. Light-bodied; Very tart and strong fruit flavours dominate here with a ton of dryness and grassy qualities and only a bit of the sugars peeking through the edges. Aftertaste shows the dry and tart super pungent blackcurrant note that isn’t mistaken at all - quite pungent, but enjoyable, with a touch of the apple, yeast and light blackberries on the finish. Aftertaste is fairly mild, but showing some good sweetness and dry characteristics, especially for the style, with a big hit of blackcurrants and soured notes new the end. Overall, a nice and tart, soured, but enjoyable cider with some good flavours throughout that has some subtle complexity and range for the style. I sampled this sixteen ounce, pint-sized can, purchased from Wegman’s [grocery] in Tyson’s Corner (Vienna), Virginia on 29-October-2021 for US$1,99 (part of a mixed six pack), sampled on the train from New York back to Washington on 05-December-2021.

That's a lot of sour peaches! Almost forgot it was a cider, nice inventive thang. More sour than sweet though but more wild ale vibes than cider too.

Refreshing and flavorful but not feeling the blackcurrant in this, get more medicine than jammy but I can recognize that it could be delish.
