Okay pale straw body and no foam, medium carbonation. Chewy apple aroma, slightly sweet, definitely grocery store apple variety. Taste is a nice musty apple, slight earthy funk, finishes bone dry. Some lingering apple sweetness. Quite enjoyable.

Pours a nice light pale straw body, effervescent carbonation, no foam. Very faint floral apple aroma, slightly sweet. Taste is a vinous apple, sweet and slightly juicy, vinegar notes. Okay semi-dry finish. Adequate.

Nice light gold body, minimal foam, okay carbonation. Kind of a muddled sweet apple aroma, slightly sharp. Musty apple taste, sweet yet funky, carbonation helps sharpen it too. Rustic yet approachable.

Pours a nice light pink, soft gold hints, no foam and minimal carbonation. Nice sweet apple on the nose, red wine tannins working with it. Taste is a tart fresh apple with some good red wine notes on the back end to round it out; lingering sweetness amplifies everything. Quite fun.

Medium gold body and some modest foam. Amazing yeast funk aroma, like brett with a bit of red wine and wood, sweet apple to bind it. Taste is deep red wine melded with sweet apple, lingering wood notes, champagne carbonation to keep it lively. All sorts of excellent here.

Cloudy pale straw body and minimal foam, minimal carbonation. Okay hops on the nose melding pretty well with sweet apple. Taste is a nice floral hoppiness working good with chewy apple, slightly sharp, good carbonation for a crisp finish. Good balance here, enjoyable.

Okay light gold body and minimal foam. Kind of a murky honey-apple aroma vibe, soft nettle maybe, there's an awkward herbality to the smell. Taste is rustic and musty, slightly chalky, sweet apple tempered by the nettle which lends a burlap like funk to it. I'm not sold on it but it's not bad.

Modest pale straw body, good carbonation, foam gone fast. Kind of a sweet muddy apple aroma, caramel hints even. Taste is sweet apple, a little too thin, good carbonation helps even it out though. Also somehow comes across as boozy which is odd for something that really isn't.

Good foam on a stormy light pale straw body. Really good rustic apple aroma, intense funk, burlap and chewy skin. Taste is vinous apple, sweetness lingers with vinegar notes, ends extremely dry but still a hint of sweetness. They're knocking it out of the park with this one.

Weak gold with no foam, smells of mellow musty apple, slight tannins. Taste is mellow vine and slight champagne notes, good carbonation, to keep it lively. Adequate.
