Sweet on the front of the tongue, and then dry in the finish. Certainly apple flavor predominates. Really not complex, but tasty. Smooth and full bodied, particularly for a cider. A little white grape sneaks in there in the back as well. I really don’t see myself ever buying one, but this is not bad.

Pours a beautiful clear golden color. Has a definite aroma of fermented apples. Tastes like weak apple juice. This is the first cider I’ve had, it’s interesting but not my cup of tea.

Almost like having a nice glass of Apple Juice with the necessary alcohol content to give the kick that it needs. Quite light and flavorful. Can’t taste any alcohol in it at all.

12 oz. bottle. Aroma of cooked apple. Maybe just overripe apple. Brassy gold color with a flash of white head. A bit thin. Very light carbonation. Something of apple cider, cider vinegar, and a little sweetness. Finish is cooked apple.

As Hornsby’s Amber Draft / Hard Cider
Deep blond color. The aroma is light, sweet, with mature apples. A good body, with balanced mix of mature apples juice, some sourness, some sweetness and the necessary carbonation. Refreshing and drinkable.

Clear 12oz bottle. Looks like my piss this morning.... Apple juice, amber colored. Champagne fizziness. Flavor is of a rotten apple. Very dry finish. Refreshing on a hot day. I wouldn’t try it again though...

Nice punchy thirst quencher fro a hungry crowd: a really heavy bit that was pleasing for a BBQ. Had the crisper apple version too--it was quite refreshing.

a decent drink with some alcohol. my only cider, yet reading other descriptions makes this seem bland. tastes of apples and faint sweetness. very simple, unremarkable but very drinkable.
