Bottle. Pours with a crystal clear yellow and a large fizzy white head that lasts longer than most ciders. Strongly sulfury and bretty aroma, English style it would seem, which I wasn’t expecting. Floral, mild oak lactone. A bit peppery, mild sweetness, zesty acid balance. Flavors are medium dry, lightly funky (leathery, manure), a touch of sulfur, mild oak, some salinity, grassy. Off dry but with a strong acid balance, medium minerality. Very lightly chlorophenolic. Medium carbonation, medium0full bodied for a cider. Light tannin, slightly warming.

Had immediatly after the dry hopped cider. This is slightly less refreshing due to bourbon aging but not quite dessert level. You get tart apples, with light bourbon sweetness, oak, vanilla, and some light lemon. decent cider but im no expert in this field

Sitting on chair in a shadeless driveway on hot Arizona day after drinking several big stouts it was welcome sight for a cider to make an appearance. Pours light sparkling yellow. nose of apples and hops. tastes of crisp tart apples but not overwhelmingly so, you get some grass, lemon, and hops as well. crisp but a little paper tasting on finish

Bottle from Whole Foods in Folsom. Pours perry color with a fizzy white head that didn’t last long. Aroma seems apple. Near med body. Flavor is apple with grassy/citrus hop. Not a lot, but enough to make a difference. Vive la différence! Cider should be hopped.

Cloudy yellow. Fresh apple character. Candyish and tart simultaneously - fun cider. Finish is appley and clean. Interesting stuff - I will want to investigate more.
