Poured from a 375 ml bottle, vintage 2012. Thanks Tom10101! Aroma is apples, rich caramel, some faint toffee. Light spice notes with hints of stone fruit. Light tannins. Pours a golden color with no head. Sheets of alcohol and long legs with no lacing. Flavor is very sweet with nice red apple notes and hints of green apples and light tannins. Moderate spice notes with lighter hints of tropical fruit and touches of citrus. Light alcohol notes adding a bit of spice as well. More green apple notes in the finish with some caramel. Mouthfeel is full bodied with no carbonation. No astringency or alcohol warmth. Overall, a nice ice cider. It?s hard to compare after a night of beer, but this one seems really good. Nice caramel note with a lot of apple complexity. Hints of other fruits with a decent spice note.

Corked bottle, vintage 2012Golden color. Less apple aroma than other Ice Ciders, and some more acidity. The body is almost syrupy, very sweet; nice apple flavour, but not much depth, and moderate acidity.
Very good, as usual, but a bit cloying in the big picture.

2012 vintage. 375mL bottle, pours a clear golden with no head. Aroma is very complex, with caramelized apples, medium brown sugar sweetness and some treacle toffee. Flavour is quite sweet, with lots of brown sugar, caramel apple, and treacle toffee -- not even a touch of acidity. Sweet, desserty, without any acidity or tannin quality. Elegant stuff. Marvelous.
