Woodchuck Dark and Dry 802 Draft Cider

Brewed by Green Mountain Cidery (HP Bulmer)
Style: Cider
Middlebury, Vermont USA

Looks great - Brownish-reddish in color. Smells like sweet apple. Tastes both sweet and sour - similar to the non-alcoholic apple ciders you’d find around here at orchards inthe fall... Very good. I’m impressed. Better than their Granny Smith. Great companion to waffles and syrup (I’d know since that’s what i’m drinking it with!)

Bottle. Looked like a dark iced tead when poured with zero head. Smelled very sweet, wood and apples. Cloyingly sweet with a puckering effect. Somehow managed to feel, sticky, thin and oily all at once.

Bouteille de 12 oz achetée au Beverage Warehouse (Winooski, VT). Arôme: Odeur de pommes légèrement sûrettes et de caramel. Apparence: La couleur est ambrée. Saveur: Goût de pommes et de caramel.

Dark yes, dry no. Amber colour, no head. Sweet aroma, light caramel, appley sweetness. Strong brown sugar and some traces of apple skin. For something called dry, it’s anything but. Gets cloying.

Bottle. Redish color. Aroma is again like the regular Woodchuck, but with a slight caramel aroma. Decent flavor, again of apple and some caramel.

pours a reddish brown color w/ a small off white head and soem avg lacing. Aroma is light tart apple cider w/ some sweet notes and a touch of carmel. Palate is a bit thin but wellc arbonated nad coats ok. Flavor is actually pretty good.. Not a great cider but much better than regular woodchuck (much less sweeter).

No thanks. If I want cider, I’ll get plain cider. Absolutely no added value to the product with alcohol present. Carbonated thin mouthfeel with no head or lacing. Flavor was sweet apple cider blended with champagne. This isn’t beer, a subclass, or even a relative. If it is, then wines and champagnes should be added as a category of beer.

Bottle poured a clear reddish copper with a small quickly dissapating amber head. Aromas of apples! Palate was light bodied and crisp. Flavors of sweet apples, then some tartness with a tart dry finish.
