Very pale greenish-yellow...not at all like something made from apples...which doesn’t surprise me. Snappy apple aroma. Has a simplistic apple taste. The lightly alcoholic finish hints at dryness. Tolerable for a macro cider.

Very pale colour, no lasting head, although with cider not surprising. I'm not really sure what it's supposed to look like since this is my first cider since I was in undergrad. Great acidic apple/pear aroma. Flavour is like biting into a fresh apple. Nice crispness and not sweet. No real finish, although as I recall it, these don't ever really have one. Very good, I think I'll have to start drinking more cider.

(Bottle) CW3 gathering in Victoria. Purchased at the BCLS Fort Street. Clear yellow tinge with no carbonation. Another 7% Grower bubbly. Mmm... dry MacIntosh apples. Watery, thin appley flavour with a white wine finish.

341ml green bottle. Very pale yellow in colour, no head. Aroma is winey alcohol with a trace of apple. Light apple taste, slight alcohol and generic white wine notes. Dry finish. Not impressive.

Always in the 2L bottles. The apple cider is the one I like best from Growers. It’s a pale, carbonated and refreshing drink. A touch acidic... but as are all the growers brands, it lays it on the side of the fruit. Not bad at all! Better than strongbow
