22 oz. bomber from Whole Foods, Hinsdale. Poured over ice per suggestion. Cloudy, whitish cider with lots of nice fizz. Tart smell, but I can easily recognize the Honey Crisp apples. I find the apple taste a bit light, probably did not need the ice since it was nicely chilled. Sweeter than most ciders I know, and admittedly I don’t know a lot of them. Even without ice, though, the cider taste is a bit thin. Might have done well without adding honey.

22oz bomber. Sweet honey and white grape aroma. Pale, thin yellow with some CO2 bubbles. No head. Somewhat reminds me of a really light white wine. Sweet and light on the palate. Some interesting apple tastes after a few sips, but a little thin for me. Refreshing.

Pours hazy silver. White head. Light sweet aroma. Medium body with near creamy carbonation. Flavor is sweet apple skin. Very refined. Finish is quite clean. It’s very drinkable.

Bottle, ABR 2009. Served over ice. A cloudy, hazy cider. Real apple aroma with yeast. Medium sweet flavor, good palate, and a little thick. The best of their ciders.

A little more apple flavor and aroma than the Brut. A little sweeter. Clear again. Simple, but drinkable. Refreshing.

ABR 2009. Served on ice. Apple aroma and apple flavor, but it is not very strong. This one is dry. No yeast or complexity really, but drinkable enough.
