Can - clear, very pale golden, with a lively effervescence to the body - very dry, refreshing, crisp, very much like a dry, sparkling white wine - the nose has lovely, clean, while apple character, and a background touch of phenolics - dry, tart, almost savory, with a bright and refreshing acidity - tart, earthy apple finish - the best of their canned ciders, by far, and great for the warm weather - I ran back to the store to buy more!
Earlier Rating: 1/18/2014 Total Score: 3.6
Tap at Stem - a clean, crisp, moderately acidic, strongly dry cider - bright, earthy apple flavors, a hint of phenolics, and a finish of tart apple flesh and white grape skins - a light mineralic tang makes the dry finish pop even more - reminiscent of some dry, subtle basque ciders - nice.

Sample at Freschcraft during the "Colorado Craft Beer Week: Ratio Beerworks Firkin Tapping!" on 03/24/2017. Clear dark purplish-pink color with a thin white head that burns away quickly to an outer ring. Short strings of lacing. Aroma of berries, apple and spice. Medium body with flavors of raspberry, spice and yeast. The finish is mildly tart with a raspberry aftertaste. Decent overall.
