| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Mar 27, 2008 Thanks to Skyview for sharing. A still gold pour with sweet apple aroma and a similarly sweet apple flavor. Very drinkable. JK (2966), Richfield, Minnesota, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Mar 22, 2008 A nice sweet cider shared by Skyview. Gold in color. Sweet like a riesling, but with an apple cripsness. Some apple flavor, and it is there in the aroma as well. Not on the level of Niege or Givre, but good in its own right. The high abv is well hidden, not like their dry cider which is a little hot. OSLO (829), Minnesota, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Mar 7, 2008 [Bottle, thanks Skyview] Pours somewhat pale golden. Light honey and a lot of apple with a little grape. Medium mouthfeel and very smooth. I’m certainly not the best at reviewing ciders, but I did enjoy this. Of the two Bayfield ciders I think this was the better one. badgerben (3605), Blaine, Minnesota, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Mar 6, 2008 Thanks to Skyview. Gold color with no head. Both the aroma and taste are heavy on slightly sweet, yet tart apples. Very full body, but not syrupy. A bit of apple pie spiciness. Stine (1380), St. Paul, Minnesota, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Mar 6, 2008 Poured from a 750 ml bottle. Clear, light blonde appearance; glassy. Aroma of golden apples on french toast with maple and cinnamon; happiness on a chilled october morning. Pears, apples, honey, and white grapes in the flavor; pastry like doughiness in the mid palate interacts well with the fruity, acidic sweetness that’s highlighted here. Palate is punchy and rich, but very smooth; finish is very juicy and again giving a distinct white grape balance of sweetness and tartness. Deeper in complexity than the fully dry example; very nice and highly drinkable. Thanks for sharing, Bob! Skyview (4077), Papoose Jct., Minnesota, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | Mar 5, 2008 Picked up a 750 ml bottle at the Washburn IGA in Washburn, Wisconsin (north of Ashland). Beverage pours a clear golden apple cider with some thin viscosity tears inside the glass sides. Aroma of light sweet apples, a touch of honey, with some chardonnay grape character. Taste is slightly sweet, smooth with a semi-sweet apple and pear flavor. Finish is light, crisp apple with a faint white grape aftertaste. This cider has slight white wine character and is quite refreshing.
