Pride version: Semi-dry apple nose Clear golden, sparse amount of suspended glitter. Semi dry apple, very light cobweb. Tangy finish. Light body, moderate carbonation. Whimsical and poundable.

Basically a super light cider. Refreshing, not much going on flavor-wise though.

Can from TJ's. Rounded wine glass @ home. Clear, 14k gold pour; fleeting head. Minerals, chardonnay-ish, very mellow sweet apple scent, iron, grass, low but noticable citrus. Flabby first sip, syrupy till almost the end. Low carbonation. Round sweetness with a light soda acidity at the end. Aerosol, mild lemon, good apple sweetness but missing most of the tartness. Not the sweetest mess, but still too much. Meh.

Very clear body with a crisp, bright rose and pink coloured body with a very thin, super fast-dying pure white head, just as you'd expect. Aroma of honey, alcohol, flowers, perfume and a good deal of cranberry and tart fruit and berry notes - quite strong with a lot of sweetness throughout, balanced by a moderate amount of tart fruits. Light-bodied; Strong tart and very fruity notes dominate with a lot of cranberries, flowers, sweet honey and caster sugar and a light hit of earth at the very end. Aftertaste shows some floral and very dry, herbal characteristics with a super pungent, dry and tea-like cranberry and tart fruit note with a light sweetness, but the tart and almost soured flavours are the strongest, in a great way. Overall, a tiny dose of apples do finally peek through, but the cranberries, honey, caster sugar and floral notes are all very strong here, and the tart fruits dominate in a nice balance - especially for the style with a light hit of alcohol here as well. I sampled this sixteen ounce, pint-sized can, purchased from Total Wine in Manassas, Virginia on 19-March-2020 for US$3,49 sampled at my house here in Washington on a cold evening on 09-January-2021.

Super clear golden and almost pure pale clear coloured body with a slight haze of pure white, almost ghostly looking, all without any head at all, even after first cracking. Aroma of bright tropical fruits, pineapple, guava and passionfruit all with some lighter apple and vinegar acidic notes towards the very end. Light-bodied; Strong pineapple, guava and passionfruit notes dominate with some lighter mangoes and citrus noticeable as well, but the crisper and soured, tart fruit are way more pungent, along with some lighter apple and cider notes towards the end. Aftertaste is very crisp with the dry, cider, apple and light fruity notes showing through, but the deeper tropical fruits, especially the passionfruit and pineapple notes being by far the strongest. Overall, a nice and robust, crisp cider with a bunch of tropical fruit notes in addition to the apple flavours, but the tart and crisp sweet notes hit strongly at the end as well. I sampled this sixteen ounce, pint-sized can, purchased from Total Wine in Manassas, Virginia on 12-August-2020 for US$3,79 sampled walking the streets here in New York, New York on 20-December-2020 with my wife and kids.

Wow, that’s amazing. Super heavy maple flavor without being sickeningly sweet.

Perfectly clear golden coloured body with a thinnish off-white head that fades to literally nothing a few seconds later, but some small bubbles still rise from the bottom. Aroma of apple, grass, light flowers and some moderate sweetness with a dash of honey towards the end, and an overarching bitterness in the nose. Light-bodied; Super crisp, very sweet apples show at first with a lot of dry malts, yeast, bread and astringency, but the pure fresh honey flavour makes this much more mead-like than a cider, with only some moderate floral notes, but the sweetness both from the apples and especially the honey is rich. Aftertaste shows some softer herbal and concord grapiness and some extra caster sugar thrown in with a lot of yeasts and pungency from the breadiness that ensues, and not in a good way. Overall, a very sweet, cloying, honey-flavoured, yet still appley note, but the yeast and breadiness add too much to the bitterness and make it a bit unpleasant. This one is perhaps one of my least favourite from the cidery, and in the past others have been good, but this relatively simplistic recipe (I would think?) did not work out well at all. Definitely passable and try to find most of their other ciders - THOSE are good! I sampled this sixteen ounce, pint-sized can, purchased from Costco in Arlington (Pentagon City), Virginia on 23-June-2020 for US$2,39 sampled at my house here in Washington on 02-October-2020.
