Wegmans can. I see below that Drake has rated this 2.5 years in the future. Pours very hazy gold, no head. Apple in the nose, somewhat tart. Flavor is sweet apple, tart apple, maybe a hint of spice? Sweet, not cloying. Decent flavor, but one is enough.

Draft at Downeast Cider in Boston. Poured a very bright red color with a very small head. Aroma was big strawberry notes. Flavor reminded me of juice box strawberry juice and some tropical fruit, apple is a bit hidden. A touch sweet, but not nearly as sweet as it could have been, even given my above description.

Draft at Cheeky Monkey. Poured a super hazy yellow color with a small, wispy head. Aroma was big coriander and orange notes. Flavor was nice light pear, apple, with coriander, orange zest. This reminded me a bit of a Hoegaarden.
