Clear yellow, no head. Aroma of oak wood, white wine, apple. Taste is very much sour apple, like juice with bubbles. Sweet.

Straw color - darker than many commercial ciders. True apple aroma, tinge of sulfur. Lightly tangy, semi-dry finish. A very nice mix of acidity, apple flavor, and light sweetness. One of the top 2 or 3 commercial ciders I’ve tried to date.

Draft. Clean apple aroma. Apple juice appearance. Moderate apple flavor a bit on the dry side but goes down smooth. Probably the best widely available cider.

Good apple aroma and flavor. Nothing spectacular but much better than I really expected. A very pleasant cider.

No ciders rated? No more! This cider pours with the clear golden color of Spartan apple juice, and just the slightest off-white head. Vinegary, appley aroma. Tart apple flavor, somewhat acidic and metallic. Rather thin. I predict a headache in the morning.

Very slight horseblancket aroma. Pee yellow. Citric flavors, dust and hay as well. Watery in general, not particulary dry despite what the can says.

Pale blond colour, without head. Sweet-sourish aroma. Smells a little bit like lambic or wine. Fruit flavour, also like wine or lambic. Though, it is a quite one-dimensional. The true question is: "Is it rational to call it beer?"
