Woodchuck Dark and Dry 802 Draft Cider

Thanks to swalden28. Clear brown pour. Aroma is apple, brown sugar. Flavor is dust, sugar, apple, cloyingly sweet.

Bottle courtesy of Swalden28. Clear apple juice yellow pour. Apples on the aroma. Some dry notes as well. Taste is apple upfront with a dryness edging around. Finishes crisp and pleasuring.

As it plainly states on the bottle, this is Woodchuck’s drier cider offering and that term is rather relative as most of Woodchuck’s ciders are pretty darn sweet. This is very reminiscent of a sweet reisling and can leave your palate a little parched. Nose is of over-ripe tree fruit and it has a very light mouthfeel. Bring the taste back through your nose and you get more green pear than anything. Not a poor cider, but not the best.

Clear look, reddish amber in color with not really any head. The smell is apples, fruits, sweet, light tartness, and juicy. The taste is fruits, apples, sweet, and ok.

Bottle. Pour is deep clear golden. Aroma is of sweet and lightly tart granny smith apples. A light bit of caramel is noticeable in the flavor accompanied by more sweet and crisp apples. Not a bad cider. I like the light body and crisp finish.

Brewed in the USA... Pours amber in color zero head. Aroma of apples and possible citrus notes. Taste of mild sour apples and caramel. Mouthfeel was kind of dry overall. This was interesting to try, but not sure how i feel about it?

clear yellow/orange with no head. restrained apple and pear aroma. a light body with sparkling carbonation. flavor of apples with a some bitterness. not too sweet. i like this. yes, dry finish.

Bottle. My personal favorite of the Woodchuck ciders. It’s got the apple flavor, but it has a nice, bitter kick that the rest of the Woodchuck ciders tend to lack. Drinkable, I’d drink it again.
