| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Dec 1, 2008 Bottle… Clear amber cider with a small, fizzy, quickly dissipating head. Woodsy, apply nose - suggestions of sour mash and apple butter. Medium-bodied with fizzy carbonation. Sweet and woodsy with just a whisper of sour mash. Basically, a middle-of-the-road cider with fizz. Lengthy, sweet, mildly bourbony finish that dries out a touch in the end. fishingnet (1045), Brandon, Florida, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Nov 30, 2008 Bottle. Pours a clear golden with no head. Aroma of oak and tart apples.

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Nov 27, 2008 Pours clear copper with a small patchy white head. The aroma has the typical apple, but there is a dryness from the oak balancing the sweetness with just a hint of tartness. Medium / light body that is silky with only a bit of carbonation. The taste has semi-sweet apple, bits of oak and a lushness to the flavor. The finish is fairly dry and oaky. This is quite enjoyable for a mass produced cider. Naka (525), Indiana, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 2/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Nov 21, 2008 Pours a clear relatively thin looking pale amber color with a little bubbling, but no real head. A sweet sort of vinegary apple cider aroma with just a hint of oak thrown in there for good measure. Hmmm... very very sweet. Pretty much like regular Woodchuck... aged in oak... which is pretty much what this is. Apples and oak chips with a little bit of a chardonnay quality. If they let this dry out a little bit, I think I would really enjoy it. Right now, the 1 bottle split 3 ways is plenty.
