Corked bottle from Coal Harbor Liquor Store
Measured Final Gravity: 1.053
Skewed Refractometer Reading: 19.4°B
Blond color. Nice aroma, sweet, sour, appley, without the caramel and stewed fruit depth of the ones from Quebec. Sweet, not syrupy; very nice flavor, with a correct degree of acidity, some mellow apple.
Not much complexity, don’t expect a real Ice Cider, but this is a good dessert cider. Too expensive.

375mL bottle, pours a clear pale yellowish blonde. Aroma brings out notes of sweet green apple, considerable alcohol, and caramel. Flavour is quite complex but messy, with caramel, green apple and lots of alcohol. Hot and medium sweet, but it works pretty well together. Not an elite ice cider, but it's a lovely dessert wine.

On tap at 12 Kings, pours a clear blonde with no head. Aroma brings out some light funk and crisp dry green apple. Flavour brings out green apples, a little rotting apple core and a touch of funk but not much. Standard stuff, not much complexity. It's alright.

Bottle at CiderWISE, pours a clear full blonde. Nose brings out perfumey notes and dry apples. Flavour is very standard, with medium sweetness, medium acidity and a dry finish. As standard as can be. Competent but nothing interesting.
