Basically tasted like a bland lager with some apple juice added; very sweet. No head, just some bubbles. Aroma was sweet and like apple juice. This is my first rated cider. I’d really like to have a "real" cider. It was OK, but I don’t have to drink this stuff again.

Looks, tastes, and smells exactly like real apple cider. Seriously, you could have switched it with a real cider and i probably wouldnt have noticed. Very sweet, appley taste. Too sugary for me, but if you like malted drinks and ciders, this is probably right up your alley.

Poured a golden color with minimal head. Nice apple aroma. Nicely carbonated with a sweet/sour apple flavor. though it will never replace beer for me, this was a nice refreshing change of pace though.

Slightly better than their Green Apple flavor, but it is still cider. Crisp and mildly alcoholic.

I have always enjoyed this. Not really much beer taste. It is basically carbonated apple cider with a little bit of beer taste mixed in. Still very enjoyable and refreshing.

Two good descriptors for this beer are (1) pleasant and (2) sweet. I enjoy it, although the criticism that it is too sweet for regular consumption is valid. It is not really a beer, either. This one is fuller and more satisfying than its Granny Apple counterpart. The picture of the woodchuck with the apples on the front is cute.

Poured out of a bottle with virtually no head. The color is yellow with minor carbonation. The aroma is definate apples. The taste is suprisingly sweet and pleasant. Too sweet for me to drink alot of but I could have one of these now and then.

Pellucid gold with high levels of carbonation, no head and little lacing. Tart apple aroma, green apple Jolly Rancher. Whoa. Sour apple right at the front there. Made my jaw clench. More of Jolly Rancher in the flavor. A little buttery almost. Dry, sour palate with the same finish.
