Applejack nose, bourbon and apple. Opaque amber, abundant carbonation visible. Bourbon and applesauce flavor, the bourbon fades. Light body. I don’t like bourbon, but it goes well with cider.

Bomber. Aroma is a lot like sauvignon blanc with an apple character; after it warms a little bit, floral notes come out. Pours a hazy greenish-white color, almost like a sauv blanc but even paler; no head. Taste is sweet and tart, dry; honey is detectable in the finish. Carbonation is fairly soft, body medium. Nice cider, although 22 oz is a bit much for one person at one sitting. 12 oz would have worked better for me.

Bomber from Total Wine in Sacramento, CA. Pours a hazy perry/cider mixed color. Aroma is woody and apple. Maybe a bourbon hint. Med body. There’s wood, mixed flavors, including a touch of bourbon, and perhaps some rye spice. Complicated, but it’s not overdone. Get’s just a hint of tart/wood towards the finish. Really quite nice, finishing towards dry.

Pours a reddish-purple color. It smells mainly of berries. The flavor is sweet with blackberries dominating and some pear in the background. It’s okay, but less than impressive.

On tap @ Republic. Pours a clear gold with no head whatsoever. Aroma has notes of pre-ripe pear that has a good amount of earthiness. Flavor is much more sweet with ripe pear and a kind of candy note.

Bottle from Wegmans. Cloudy golden, glowing, effervescent. Dry apple nose, leaves, touch of lemon. Complex flavor, ripe apples, nice tartness, some minerals, a touch of maple syrup, yeasty spices coming from the Trappist yeast. Rich but not overly sweet. Nice tang. Good body. Nice stuff.
