12 oz can. Tasted alongside Southcider. This has a slightly lighter apple smell, with a very slight edge of beer hop. Pours a fizzy head at first, then settles to an almost still, bright yellow color, with bubbles still streaming from the bottom. Dry cider taste as expected. Slight hoppy aftertaste works with the driness of the cider. Remains light and slightly fizzy, with no cloying sugar or sweetener.

12 cans from Jewel. Light apple nose. Starts a little fizzy, settles to show a slightly bubble golden body. Apple taste is pretty light. I didn't get much sweetness until I tasted again after sampling the drier Northcider. No overdone sugar, apple taste stays mild with a slight touch of cinnamon and maybe cardamon.

On tap at Wakefest. Pours gold with no head. The aroma is apple skin and oak. Thin body, tart apple, crisp, light dry finish, very nice.

On tap at Virtue, pours a clear pale golden with a tiny head. Aroma brings out tart cherries, light cinnamon, and faint bourbon. Flavour is very dry, with light tart cherries, bone dry apples, and a hint of bourbon. I preferred regular The Mitten, but this is nice too. Good stuff.

On tap at Virtue, pours a clear pale blonde. Aroma reveals earthy bourbon and muted apple skins. Flavour is quite dry, with a really nice bourbon and vanilla character upfront, and gentle caramel. Traces of residual sweetness provide the complexity needed. Very nice.

On tap at Virtue, pours a clear pale blonde, no head. Aroma brings out a nice champagne must, gentle wild yeast and crisp apple skins. Flavour is bone dry, with a very nice brut yeast, mimicking the complexity of a champagne, with crisp apple skins. Bone dry and very complex. Excellent.
