Blackthorn Cider

Brewed by Matthew Clark Cider
Style: Cider
Bristol, England

Over carbed gold with a sulphuric aroma. Processed flavour with a hint of apples. Thin, refreshing but not my cup of tea.

WOAH....Big sulpher nose. Not very appealing. Tastes like hell. Very bland, but all sulphites in nose and flavor. Nothing here that I would ever like to revisit. Darn, because I thought I may enjoy a dry English cider...But I sure didnt enjoy this one. Yucky

Low ratings because, well, there’s not much to this stuff. It’s water with ABV, basically. If "N/A" was a choice for flavor, I would pick that. There is simply nothing here. Nothing. Nothing.

I do not know why, if these are not beers, are rated, but anyway, I think it is ok, but I can not say much about it.

11. oz bottle - Central Market - Austin, Tx. Pours a chablis-like golden color with little to no head. Aroma has a wine-like essence to it with a faint whiff of golden delicious apples, but turns slightly sulphuric near the end. Flavor has a some apple notes of course but has a very winey essence to it. Finish is a bit weak, turns a bit like stale water near the end. Overall, a below average cider.

Pale yellow straw colour, gassy carbonation. Thin cidery aroma, lactic sourness and a bit plasticy. Flavour is semi-sweet, apple, but lacking any interesting character. Boring.

Bottle: Real weak white wine and even lighter apple aromas. Pours a pale yellow with almost no head. Tastes like a weaker flat Woodchuck Cider with a light wine character to it and a little sourness. No carbonation.

Bottle from Styles. Just an average cider. Nothing special to see here, move along people!!! Light amber colored. No head. Perhaps a hint of fruit in aroma. Sweet, Rather blase’. I’ll pass on another.
