500ml (thx, Liam!) @ Ryan's on his 39th celebration.
Aroma: nice fermented stone fruits.
Taste: along the same lines, pretty dry, tastes like unripe apricots.
Overall: ok.

Bottle pour. Pours clear pale gold with no head. Lots of fermented plums and some acetic acid on the nose. Flavour has sour plums, plums skins, gentle acidity. Pretty interesting, I'm a fan.

Poured from 500mL bottle. Clear super pale blonde with very quickly dissipating white head. Light, pear skins, clean, but fairly mild. Okay.

375mL bottle, pours a clear blonde, no head. Aroma has a nice floral character, stewed apples, and light acidity. Flavour is moderately sweet, with stewed apples, moderate sweetness, and some toffee. Not a whole lot of sweetness for an ice cider, nor complexity. But it's clean and well-constructed. Pleasant.

Light gold colour. It’s got a soft apple character, some nice sugars. A bit of acidity in the finish. Not complex but good elements here.

375ml @ Ryan's shared with Brian and Phill (thx for bringing this ice cider from Travlr!). Appearance: clear pale golden. Aroma: some apples, pretty simple, pleasant enough. Taste: along the same lines, not sophisticated, quite boozy and sharp, pretty harsh and rough, with not much of the flavor. Overall: meh, unfortunately.

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.

Bottle from the source. Crystal clear golden yellow color, still, occasional legs. Aroma of apple flesh and light earth. Taste is concentrated apples and dry leaves, mild lemon. Earthy finish after a sweet start. Very tasty.

Bottle from the source. Crystal clear yellow color, light fizz. Aroma of subtle ginger, pear flesh. Taste is mainly pear with ginger coming in toward the finish. Lightly sweet but not overly so. Tasty
