Hornsbys Crisp Apple (Hard Apple)

Brewed by Hornsbys Pubdrafts Ltd./E and J Gallo
Style: Cider
Modesto, California USA

12 oz bottle. Pours a pale yellow color with a tiny almost instantly vanishing white head. It smells pretty much just like apple juice with no alcohol smell. It tastes crisp, sweet and tart with a strong apple juice taste. I haven’t had many hard ciders but enjoyed this one.

Very nice fresh-cut apple aroma. Very pale gingerale color. Front of the flavor starts off crisp, dryish apple and turns into mild astringent bitterness. Not strongly fizzy. Not bad.

(bottle - 12 oz) Golden color with a very small amount of white head. Aroma is very sweet and tart. Smells like fresh apple juice. Flavor is the same. Lots of fresh apple juice and granny smith apples and a light touch of alcohol. Finishes dry and clean with a lightly sweet aftertaste. Not too bubbly.

(12oz bottle, thanks to mar) Pours a super pale yellow-green with no head but good lacing. Nose is granny smith apple, no alcohol at all. Taste is crisp apple, and too sweet. The beer lacks carbonation as well. Sweetness is killing it for me.

Have had straight from the bottle on numerous occasions. The sweetest of their varieties, and almost too sweet. Good for the ladies and people who like sweet... tastes like apple juice and fills you up with sugar.

pale watery yellow with a white head. nose is tart, crisp apples and light sugar. decent thickness with an apple flavor that’s decent but the sugar kills it.

(12oz bottle, courtesy of mar) Pours a clear yellow body with a spare white head. Aroma of sweet Macintosh apples, melon, and candy. Flavor of sugary apple cider, somewhat sour, with a dry finish.

Bottle courtesy of mar. Clear yellow. Ridiculously sour. Apple sweetness. Definite sour elements. A decent cider that holds true to it’s fruity foundations.
