Bomber poured into a shaker. Pours clear and very pale with no head. Looks almost like a white wine. Aroma of crisp green apples, green apple jolly ranchers and just a slight hint of vanilla. Taste is tart and lightly sweet. Green apples start with some motts apple juice on the end. Just a very slight hint of vanilla at the very end. Light bodied with a thin and surprisingly unsticky texture. Soft, almost flat carbonation and a decently long finish that ends very abruptly. Overall, not bad. Enjoyable and very drinkable, but not worth seeking out.

Bottle poured into a shaker. Pours a lightly cloudy gold with no head. Aroma of green and red apples with a little spice. Taste is sweet. Starts with apples but the maple hits me right away. Just a slight hint of spicy belgian yeast in the after taste. Light bodied with a thin texture. Soft carbonation but a decently long finish. Pretty good. A very interesting take on the cider. A whole bomber may be a bit much though. May want to plan on sharing this one.

12 oz bottle from Super 1 in Rathdrum, ID. Pours clear golden with a fleeting white head. Aroma is basic cider, no frills or off-notes. Taste is sweet and tart, finishing dry. Carbonation is fairly soft, thin body. Good and simple.

Bottle. An unclear, yellow cider with some white bubbles. The aroma is almost puke-like, but the sweetish apples dominates. Some cinnamon hints. The flavor is pretty much the same, although less spiced. Medium body, silky on the palate. Lasting sweet apple finish. Overall, I’m not impressed in any way. The only thing I really like about it is the mouthfeel. 130804

Bottle, 22oz. An almost clear, pale yellow body, flat. Strange aroma I think, sort of candy-ish, with a spiced touch and some honey, in addition to the apples of course. Sweetish apples and some honey in the flavor, a touch of candy here as well. Medium body. Although the label says crisp, I find it rather sweetish. Not bad though, but definitely drinkable. 130803

Refrigerated brown bomber poured into a white wine glass. Pours translucent golden with small white head. Very little lacing, medium body, medium/low carbonation, and light apple aroma. Taste is nice soft pressed apple. Pretty rich but not as rich as JK Solstice, very good.
