Ok sour apple cider. Not really a beer in the purist sense. Drsinkable in small uantities. Belongs ina wine glass though. Will eat through your stomach lining in large quantities.

Another apple tasting novelty beverage. One of these types of brews is all that I can handle. All of the sugars tend to give me a stomach ache. If you have an iron-cast tummy, these puppies will get you pretty good and drunk though.

Definitely not as drinkable as the Hard Apple version. Aroma is less apple smell and more wine smell. Tastes all right, but not as fresh as the Hard Apple Cider.

Color is a clear light brownish yellow with lots of carbonation bubbles leaving a skimmed head of small bubbles that fizzed about like a soda pop for the first fifteen seconds or so. Smell is a darker apple of sorts, the really dark red ones, not as sweet ot tart smelling as others. More flat and easy on the nose. Taste is apple, more of a creamy sour then nice tight and tart, a bit more smoothed out and darkening sweet. Feel doesn't have the dryness that I expect from a cider, its very wet and easy with a fair amount of deep sweet and sour hold thats not bitter, tart or dry enough. Its still a darn good cider, its just a bit different then most, more darker and deeper then most, not as bright, dry and tart that I like to have in my snakebites.

Medium yellow color with some carbination. Smell of sour apples ( Granny Smith and Macintosh combined.) The taste is sour and slighty bitter with a definite alcohol bite. Better if very cold.

One of the better ciders I have had. This one actually has a head to it and has a pleasant tart apple aroma to it - reminds me of Golden Delicious apples. Flavor of Golden Delicious apples as well - alcohol hidden well. Goes down extremely well - no rough edges.

It's a plain apple cider, so not much to say, except it looks and tastes like carbonated apple juice with alcohol...WARNING: I drank a few of these one night and suffered with acidic stomach and a headache in the morning.

Nice golden color,lots of upfront carbonation that faded some what fast must have been just a teaser.There was a head but it faded faster then your 401K The aroma is that of a soft apple with an almost apple muffin tone to it.The taste is pretty decent,kind of like biting into a granny smith bold and tart at first but later mellows to a sweet taste with a slight sour finish at the back of the tongue.it is also very sweet but not to bad it is very tollerable and good IMO.This is definately a very drinkable brew and makes me want to re-think my views on ciders there not as bad as i once thought.
