Description
The Brand that Started the American Cider Revolution

At Woodchuck® we have been crafting America’s original hard cider since 1991. Back then we didn’t really care that the world was drinking beer, because we had a passion for hard cider. So that’s what we made. Sure, cider may be popular now, either way we’ve stayed true to our roots, fermenting quality innovative ciders with every batch, because we like it.

Amber color. Apple juice with some less sugars. Less interesting than other ciders, very simple.

Hazy light amber color. A gentle cider, with some sweetness and some apple taste. Refreshing.

It is colored like a ginger ale and has absolutely no head. Its a cider of course, so this is not a problem... Now to see how it tastes... well first, it smells like apples (no surprise there). It is indeed pretty sweet, but not too sweet like some other ciders (so that’s a plus). Doesn’t have too much taste, but isn’t really watery at all. Overall, I have had worse ciders and this one might be drunk some day again.

Bottle. Pours like apple juice, smells like apple juice. Really no surprise that it tasted like apple juice. Good refreshing beverage.

Not quite as dark as a dark beer, but darker than any cider I have ever seen in my steeler stein. Delicious initial bite. Sweeter than most any beer. Finish has a slight strong apple peel flavor that lingers for just a short time. Pretty good. Can be compared to a very sweet stout or a weizenbock or weizen dunkle if you like sweet.

Nearly as clear as water in my steeler stein. Smells like many white belgian beers I’ve recently tasted. Tho sweeter, also has a high quality belgian white flavor. Interesting and delicious. No bubbles but nice carbonated palate on the finish. Fruity champagne impressions. No lingering aftertaste and does not have a trace of alcohol flavor. Taste is better than woodchuck granny smith and amber.

Looks like a pale yellow american beer. Not a whole lotta aroma. Has some lacing initially but dissapears after poured. More sweet than the granny smith woodchuck cider. Nice carbonation bite on the finish. Has just a little odd apple peel linger. Probably should not be compared to beers. Very nice like a fruity champagne.

Pale yellow but barely any color at all. Smells like sweet granny smith apples. No visible bubbles in my steeler stein. Not too sweet but sweeter than most beers. Medium carbonation and an ever so slight bitterness on the finish. Probably should not be rated with beers.

Another cider I almost forgot that I’ve sampled. Eh, what to expect. Pear flavors, okay, but I’d rather drink a beer and eat a pear seperately.
