Can from vintage estates. Pour is cloudy pale. Smell resemble orange soda. Taste is mostly orange juice. Yes, can barely taste the cider in this. Its a sweeter brew, orange juice in prominent. It says to shake this before you open it, but I did not dare. No real sediment in there, I wonder why they want me to shake it. Easy going, yes, almost tastes like real orange soda, sugar and all. Not much cider in this. If it is, its got lots of unfermented sugar in it.

Kind of a peach tinted cider. Guava flavor and aroma are there but subdued. Along with a little floral. Not bad.

Never thought I'd rate another Woodchuck-adjacent brew again. W... T... F... Was looking forward to some made in Monrovia crap. Pounder from TJ's. Mojito glass @home. Clear, mellow gold. Oddly lingering, eggshell head. Smells of sticky, spilt lager, cooking oil & mushy, browned apples. Absolutely lux, premium Mott's juice box flavor. Like the deepest, richest, semi-sweet, not tart, flabby, apple juice that was fermented, tasted flat & then spiked with added apple essence(natural apple flavor*). Wait, got half a lick of tartness. I cannot taste alcohol, just plastic lined juice box & mellow, hospital grade, hospice ward, apple juice. It's actually so unoffensive & drab, that I'm having trouble with the score. It's way better then my last Woodchuck. It's barely carbonated & has the consistency of soup.

This cider has a straightforward aroma of ripe apples. The flavor is sweeter than “slightly sweet” to me, but it’s not the sugar bomb that so many Woodchuck ciders are. That makes it more refreshing and enjoyable. It’s light bodied and fairly good. Sold in individual 19.2 oz cans at Kroger’s.

Can from the mixed 12 pack from Market Basket. Brilliant light gold with a smattering of fizzy white bubbles. Sweet pomme fruit with a hint of sweetness and a light carbonation. Pretty damn tasty imho.

Note to self; don't accedntly pierce a can of woodcuck cider when dumping cellar boxes together, heheh. Can, not bad, even when fairly flat its palatable. Taste is pumpkin but not in yer face, it has a calming effect about it. Puts you in a mellow mood. Pretty good sizzle as with most woodchuck ciders. It is a woody as usual and the pumpkin is fairly mild and never gets in yer face. Not bad considering the age of the can. Should-ah drank this months ago. Oh well, so goes daily beer ticking.

12 oz. bottle purchased at Total Wine - Melbourne, FL. Pours a clear light yellow color with a small fizzy white head and poor retention. No lacing. Fresh squeezed orange juice aroma. Yup, tastes just like a mimosa. Dominant orange juice flavor with limited apple flavor and a warming booze finish. Sweet finish, not dry. Alco-pop. Refreshing non beer.
