Jan 17, 2006 Updated: Feb 20, 2006Bottle. Very pale yellow colour. Smells like a cold autumn day -- very fresh, semi dry red apple. Light carbonation.
A very fresh, semi dry apple flavour. Slightly champagnelike. Very "real" apple flavor. Clean, fresh aftertaste. Totally different from can version. Wouldn’t believe it’s the same cider.
Review of can version follows:
Can. Very pale yellow. Sweet, artificial apple aroma. Flavor semi dry, bland apple cider, metallic. Low carbonation. This was a disappointment.
Total score: 1.9

Aug 25, 2003 Not bad. Considerably more dry and less sweet than a lot of Finnish ciders. Beautiful label, too. Pours clear and with a small head.

Jul 10, 2006 Can shared with HogTownHarry courtesy of R. Pours a very pale clear yellow with no head. Champagne-like aroma with apples -- smells a tad artificial. Flavour is more flavourful then the aroma suggests: lots of apple and sweetness with a very mild tartness. Light bodied. Not bad at all.

Jun 26, 2006 Can (330ml). Shared with blankboy. Poured very pale green-tinted yellow, bubbly, with basically no head. Slightly tart yeasty aroma, mostly like cheap champagne infused with sweet apple juice - it does seem dry. Taste is pretty average - very weak - like the aroma only less so. Watery, fizzy mouthfeel, incredibly quick finish - too thin, a little too sweet. *my online translator translated one of these words to "boring" - I can see that.

Oct 7, 2008 (Can 50 cl) Courtesy of oh6gdx. Pours an almost crystal clear with a vague greenish tint and a small rough off-white head. Lightly tart apple aroma. Light-bodied with a heavy carbonation and fairly authentic apple notes, tart at first but with a discreet underlying sweetness. Surprisingly decent. 180808

Oct 15, 2008 Can (as Rainbow Apple Dry). More yellow than the other rainbows, no head. Aroma is green apples, sourness and some mild barnyardy notes. Flavour is sweet rotten apples along with some tartness and mild notes of melted rubber. Quite nice for a Finnish cider actually.

Aug 21, 2008 Can. A light yellow cider with a white head. The aroma is sweet and dominated by apples, and so is the flavor, with a slightly dry finish.

Dec 20, 2008 It is a light golden cider with a white head. The aroma has notes of sweet, fresh, red apples. The flavour has a light sweetness and notes of apple, oven baked apple and light syrup. It is quite OK, could be less sweet and a little more crisp though...
