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.

The aroma is simple pears canned with vanilla. Lightly carbonated, and very light yellow. Not as sweet as ACE pear; though not very dry either. A fairly light cider overall, but not unpleasant.

Very nice drink, but can only consume once in a while. Very nice apple taste, and very sweet and at the same time very tart. Can’t drink more than one at a time.

Not especially dry, with the addition of all that sugar. Looks like a thin brown ale. Lightly sweet, with a pleasant but unremarkable, standard cider flavor. Not as refreshing as some, but not heavy or filling.

Bottle Pours a almost colorless white/yellow with no...and I mean no head or lacing (ofcourse) Some tart aple aroma. Faint tart apple flavors with the bitter apple peal like note coming on later. Watery, thin, soft carbonation. Ive had a few good fruit beers/ciders....this isn’t one of them.

Seriously crystal clear colour with the slightest of yellow tints. Basically clear like water with no head at all. Probably the worst smelling product i’ve had thats been on RateBeer. This one smells like a combination of hair salon nastiness with a mixture of fake sugars. I can’t imagine anything doing worse of in these two categories than this one. Super-Light-bodied; Pale sweetness with some canned pear flavours and a bit of apple tartness. Aftertaste shows only sweetness and no body at all. Overall, better tasting than some alcopops, but a horrible looking & smelling product. I’d rather have a real cider or a mead or something else than this. I sampled this twelve ounce bottle purchased at Total Wine in McLean, Virginia on 06-December-2004.

On tap at the Syracuse Holiday Brewfest Dec.04 2004. Almost colourless, like the urine of a drunkard. Tart apple aroma. Sweet tart synthetic mess. Sweet sour water. Sorry, this aint cider!

Clear liquid, some bubbles in it. Scent is pear, but more "cany" pear than actual pear. Taste is thin and watery, very boring... with a candied sweetness to it that’s quite unappetizing.

Clear, watery looking, with bubbles. Smells of apples, of course. Taste is seltzer water and a few drops of apple juice. Thin... very watery. Boring.

2004 bottle. Though the description says it adds caramelized sugar (and I’m sure they arent lying) the bottle just says, "caramel coloring". Interesting. Aroma of lightly sweet caramel notes, some dry appleskins, hint of yeast. Looks dark brown, almost chocolatey with some light purpleish tinges. Color aside (I’ll give them the benefit of the doubt on the coloring issue), this beer is anything but dry. I was hoping it would be dry, but no. This is sweet, too sweet, like too much apple sugar meets too much caramel sugar. Sugary, with a molasses/brown sugar thing going on. Yuck.

Aroma of apples. Sour apple flavor, then sweet from the sugar. Refreshing and light.
