Imperial Dry Hopped w/ Passion Fruit from Locust Cider and Brewing
2 years ago
6.8/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 7 Flavor 7 Texture 6 Overall 6
Single from the Ft. Worth tap room. Cheaper to take out than drink a tiny sampler there. Stemless back at the hotel. Mosiac & Simcoe hops. Clear, frothy, medium gold. Sharp, floral, bittergreen, heavy dry hop nose. Sweet & floral. Bittersweet, lime, pineapple, kale-apple smoothie. A touch too sweet, low carb, but the hops are a vast improvement on the base. Okay to good.

Watermelon from Locust Cider and Brewing
2 years ago
2.8/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 2 Flavor 1 Texture 6 Overall 2
$3 single back at the hotel. It's cheaper to takeaway cans than have a 4oz sample at the taproom. Silly. Stemless wine glass. Big head, half hazy, dull, pale orange gold pour. Upfront sulfur, chem & industrial yeast nose. Powdered sugar, heavy chem, heavy lingering veg & green chili, something not quite like watermelon. Half flat. Sweet & terrible.

Chai from Locust Cider and Brewing
2 years ago
6.4/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 7 Flavor 8 Texture 4 Overall 5.5
Clear, pale gold pour at the Ft. Worth tap room. Soapy, red cinnamon gum & cardamom nose. Taste is on point chai with a lactose-like sweetness. More black pepper & cardamon than everything else, cinnamon kept in check. Apple pie, a little skin, bright, mellow tartness. Vanilla on the label but I couldn't find it. Okay.

7.1/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 7 Flavor 8 Texture 6 Overall 6.5
Clear, magenta dark cherry color, sporty lace. Imperial grape drank nose. Taste is tart currant juice, a little cranberry, earthy, mildly tart apples, lingering pithy currant finish. Boozy heat. Tasty drink, meh as a cider. Despite obstacles, currants always win.

Small Batch - Dark Maple from Locust Cider and Brewing
2 years ago
5.5/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 4 Flavor 6 Texture 6 Overall 5
At the source. Not expecting much. Clear, medium oily gold pour. Cooked grocery apple nose, very slight sulfur. Maple nose is more caramel-y & fake. Medium sweet dessert apples, skin, soft & approachable maple syrup, low acid, low carb, very slightly smokey. Iffy adjunct special.

Juicy Peach from Locust Cider and Brewing
2 years ago
4.4/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 6 Flavor 3 Texture 4 Overall 2.5
Clear, dark gold, oily pour. Potpourri, peach puree, too floral & industrial. Cooked, canned peach flavor with a touch of apple acidity. Obvious concentrate. Pretty bad.

Bourbon Barrel Vanilla Bean from Locust Cider and Brewing
2 years ago
7.1/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 8 Flavor 8 Texture 6 Overall 6.5
Served alongside the regular & impy vanilla versions Pale straw, not quite clear pour. Smooth bourbon & subtle apple pie a la mode nose. Taste is obvious bourbon, tart & sharp apples, real vanilla bean, lingering heat. Intentionally flat & medium bodied. Probably some added sugar. Bold & rough after dinner sipper. Not the same cider base it seems. Surprisingly good.

Imperial Oak-Aged Vanilla Bean from Locust Cider and Brewing
2 years ago
5.6/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 6 Flavor 5 Texture 4 Overall 6.5
On tap side by side with the regular & bourbon barrel. Clear, medium gold, lingering bleached lace. Half sharp nose. Possibly artificial vanilla over a mellow grocery/dessert half tart apple base. Website says it's real vanilla. Vanilla ice cream baked apples. Low carb, thin. Some obvious industrial chem burn on the tail. Nah.
