Pale straw like color, aroma is sweet apples. flavor is sickly sweet with non enough apple. A cider should be crisp and remind you of fall and refresh you. This cider coats your mouth in a gross sugar coating and then you pour it out.

Dec 31, 2009 ( 500ml can) pours medium yellow with spare ring of bubbles. Nose of chalk, dry apples, and white wine-style grapes. Taste of alcohol, white wine, mildly sour grapes and Braeburn apples. Undercarbonated finish and not complex but not half bad.

Dec 30, 2009 Smell is sweet, drank it from a can so i really can’t account for the appearance. Taste is citrusy and apple, and you can taste the alcohol in this one. Not all that impressed

Nov 15, 2009 Clear yellow with small mousse. aroma is like limonade, appel and some hop ?
Taste is good and refreshing with a nice balance betweet the sweet and the sour. It is fruité but the cidre de Normandie is far better.

Nov 9, 2009 Smells a lot like apples and sugar. Tastes a lot like apples and sugar. Alcohol is not very noticeable, but it’s almost too sweet to drink. Nonetheless, it finishes much dryer than, say, Woodchuck cider. So, I guess the situation could be worse. To recap: very sweet, but not the sweetest on the market. If that’s your thing, step right up. If it’s not, I suggest buying a beer instead.

Nov 9, 2009 Enjoyed via draft in a pub glass. The cider pours a light golden color that borders on perhaps being a full-yellow. Small white head that lasts about two minutes. Nose of apple juice from concentrate, artificial sweetner, and a bit of a sour twang. The palate is nicely carbonated, and strikes a balance between being sweet up front, showing a nice, if fairly simple and straightforward, character. One downfall is what appears to be the prevalent character of concentrated sweetners added back to the beverage post-fermentation. The finish moves from being sweet up front to nicely dry on the back end, with a subtle but noticeable note of acidity. Overall, obviously aimed for the masses, but not terrible.
