Poured from 375mL bottle (thanks Travlr). Clear blonde yellow gold with no head. Sweet apple upfront, feint neutral booze, not a ton of depth. Okay.

Very pale green, apple pie kind of aroma. Off-dry, just a touch of sugar. Apple character is light, seems like this could use some tannins. I like that it’s cider apples and wild yeast, but unfortunately that doesn’t come across in the glass as much as I’d hope.

Medium gold, maybe a bit of a plum shade. It’s quite tart, with juicy plum and a fairly full body. Bright fruit, and a lingering acidic finish…interesting beverage. Bought @ Ravens Moon.

Very pale, very gingery. Lots of ginger. Ok apple but it’s pretty one dimensional.

Tart, light juicy character. Not bad, not much complexity but I appreciate the tartness.

Bottle sampled at BC Cider Fest 2024, pours a clear almost water colour. Aroma has soft ginger and crisp apple skins — pretty simple. Flavour is simple, with subtle ginger spice, mineraly notes, and crisp apple. No good at all. Way too mineraly and lacking complexity.

Bottle sampled at BC Cider Fest 2024, pours a clear pale blonde with a small white head. Aroma has some tart apple core and mineraly notes. Flavour is somewhat acidic, with light apple core, moderate acidity, and mineraly notes. Very mineraly. Not great.

500 ml bottle. Pours a bright light gold with lots of carbonation. Aromas of fresh cut apples and a little citrus. Flavors of same. Dry. Not really getting any “wild” yeast except maybe some subtle notes in the finish. Nice

Bottle sampled at BC Cider Fest 2023, pours a clear blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings out artificial ginger and crisp apple skins. Flavour is much the same, with weird ginger notes, sweet earthy apples and muddled dirtiness. Not very on target. Jumbled and messy.

Bottle sampled at BC Cider Fest 2023, pours a clear blonde with a tiny white head. Aroma brings out all sorts of weird jumbled spices, bergamot and crisp apple skins. Flavour is much the same, with a jumbled mix of spices, light bergamot, and earthiness. Jumbled and messy. Not a good product.
