| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Aug 21, 2008 Bottle. Golden with a low initial foam layer. Wooden, spicy, (cardemom,muscat) fermenting apple nose. Fairly dry and lightbodied, peppery spiced notes dominate,
some berrylike notes appear, a bit alcohol burn. Almond and old apple aftertaste. OKBeer (1159), Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Jan 17, 2008 341 ml bottle courtesy Capflu. Straw coloured with just a bit of carbonation, mostly still. Tart but dry apple and light cinnamon aroma. Quite tart and acidic up front, tartness fades through the finish but remains dry – never sweet – with a hint of alcohol. Light bodied, very dry yet refreshing and drinkable. Almost a lambic-like mouthfeel but with less oomph in the body. Very little sign of the 11% alcohol. Overall not offensive but just overly simple to really entice me to come back for more. racerocks (4), British Columbia, Canada does not count | 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Sep 16, 2007 Best flavour of any cider I’ve ever tasted. Have had a moldy bottle more than once though. Quite expensive. mgermani (865), Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Mar 21, 2007 Pours a golden yellow. Faint sweet apple aroma. Light apple flavour, slightly sour, ends with a very dry finish. Thin body, decent carbonation. Pleasant smell and subtle body make this cider quite enjoyable, refreshing, and refined.

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Feb 20, 2007 A dark clear amber to brown cider. A pleasant aroma of apple skins, alcohol, and apple pulp. In mouth, a rather wild lactic cider, rather astringent, with light corkyness, and a strong warming alcohol in finish. This reminds me very much of the dry British ciders I had in London, UK in 2005. To be sipped and enjoyed. Merci a Todd, le Capflu! frink (467), coquitlam, British Columbia, Canada
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 2/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 12/20 | Oct 28, 2006 Fisrt cider rating. Golden colour (looks like apple juice).Aroma of old apples in a cellar, Some sour apples, tannic, winelike wood notes. Definately not a Growers cider. Oakes (8101), gone rambling, Cambodia
| 2.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 2/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | May 10, 2006 Pale yellow. Strong alcohol and apple skin aroma with unpleasant note not unlike the brackish sludge at the St. Paul’s Hospital loading dock. Flavour is mainly malic acid. It’s a bit tart, with apple skin and a slight alcohol in the finish. Kind of weak, but definitely the character is rough and scrumpyish.
