Bottle shared by a friend. Yellow-ish pour. Nice tart, crisp aroma and taste. Taste was lighter than expected. Nicely dry. Artificial preservatives... BOO!!!

500ml can. Light gold with hints of head and a steady but small stream of tiny bubbles. Aroma of fermenting apples with a trace of cinamon. Refreshing carbonation and mouth feel. Straight forward dry apple juice and touch of cinamon. Perhaps a bit of funk or mystery mixed in with the apples?! A bit mouth drying. Lasting apple taste.

light golden, no head or foam. Smells like apple juice. Tastes like alcoholic apple juice. A little bitter, and quite dry. Not much else to say.

12oz’er. Less tart than I was expecting. The usual English/Irish macrobrewed cider taste. Some alcohol notes in the finish - a gentle reminder of the 6%. Could probably drink a couple of these... not annoyingly sweet which haunts this style. Pretty good.

12 oz bottle. Clear yellow with no head. The aroma is typical cider - sweet, wine, sugar. The taste is apple, smooth, no trace of any alcohol, dry finish.

Not a bad coder for what it is. A bit too sweet for my tastes. More carbonation than i like

Not a bad cider for being commercial mass produced. Golden color with a lot of carbonation that fades quickly. Kind of like Sprite. Fairly sweet, but a bit of a dry kick is present. Kind of a "sticky" mouthfeel. Ok, but not the best.
