Can. A pale yellow pour with lots of carbonation resulting in a small white head, but it disappears almost before it settles. The aroma feels a bit artificial, and is more pear-like than apple-like. Sugary impression, and a touch of alcohol in the far back. The flavor is also artificial and sugary sweet, and the fruit is a blend of canned pears and low-flavor yellow apples. Even though there’s 50% less calories in this lite version, it feels sticky in the mouth, but it doesn’t leave your teeth wooly. There’s some astringent sourness, but not much, and the finish is much like the initial flavor, but lower on the sugar. Yet another cider that lacks most of what’s good about cider. (080814)

Can @ home.Clear light to medium yellow color with a small, virtually none appearance, virtually none lacing, fully diminishing head. Aroma is moderate apple, apple rubbish. Flavor is moderate sweet with a average duration. (Syntetich apple sweet). Body is light to medium, texture is watery, carbonation is soft. (110508)

Can. It pours a very sparkling clear, pale yellow body, with the carbonation almost stopping after a few seconds. No sign of a head. Apples, a touch of yeast, loads of sugar and with a general artificial impression. Quite thin in the mouth, effervescent, and sticky sugary, leaving a thin layer of coating on your teeth. Apples, some yeast, white sugar and a little citric note in the flavor. Apples and sugar in the finish. Even though it’s this sweet and sticky, it still has some palate-cleansing qualities, guess that’s the apple-wine, but I’ll have a real cider instead of this one anytime. Didn’t finish the can. Maybe I rated it too high, but who cares. (080624)

Bottle. Pale yellow with no head. What is this? Tastes like a weak vodka/applejuice!!! Very sweet apples & sugar. Actually a bit surprised - this is not really cider!

Pale yellow with no head. Apple juice or even apple candy aroma. Sweet but refreshing apple juice flavour. I don?t drink sodapops, or alcopops. So this has nothing to offer me really.

Bottle. Rubish. Very artificial. Aromas and colour are added, and still one of the ugliest ciders I have seen. Bad applejuice aroma and flavor. Oily palate.
