6.8/10 β€” Appearance 8 Aroma 6 Flavor 7 Texture 6 Overall 7
Can drunk 8/18/18.
Slight chill haze to the deep, brassy-gold body.
In the nose it does seem quite well-attenuated, with a hint of Brett and light lime leading to yellow apple skin, light tannin and a touch of soft, aromatic oak. Bit of phenolic pepper on the end adds some complexity and there is no flaw or alcohol.
In the mouth it's indeed quite dry, though there is a big burst of sweetness initially. Acidity seems to dry it out in a balancing sort of way, rather than actual bone-dry attenuation or that sort of thing. Carbonation is fairly engaging, with a soft-to-slick texture and light toasted oak character, a bit of mushy apple sugar and lingering pepper phenols. Very lightly tart with hints of Brett and light citrus. Still has that undercurrent of "bad American cider" but it's very faint here.

Pours a clear, ever so slightly greenish yellow from a can. Aroma is of apples, no citrus or hop notes present, similar flavor. Off-dry. Good cider.

from a can, light golden yellow. smells of pear, diaper and sugar. lovely mouthfeel, soft, sprite-7up like and juicy. finish is a bit sweet. very thin flavor, like apple + 75% water. still tasty and refreshing.

At NH liquor stores, there's a mix 4-pack of 4 different ciders from 3 different cider makers. The 4th can is a blend from all 3. Enjoyed in a pint glass, fridge temp. small haze, light yellow appearance. weak aroma. faint pear, sweet apple and champagne yeast. Efervescent carbonation, thin and oily finish. sour grape, pear, tart apple and wood. tasty combo.

Pours a nice light golden straw from a can. Dank piney aroma jars against the sweet crisp apple. Flavor is a muddle of pine, lemon/grapefruit and apple, which gets shoved in the back. I’ve had good hopped ciders, but this ain’t one of them.

Pours a nice light pale gold/straw from a can. Big apple aroma smells sweet somehow, with a light orange note. In the mouth rather dry, thought not the driest. Refreshing and light, good acidity. Pretty good cider.
