Woodpecker Cider

Brewed by Bulmers Cider (S&N, Heineken)
Style: Cider
Hereford, England

Pours a pale clear gold with zero head. Aroma is mellow malt and apple. Dry green apple and hoppy flavor with a malt tone and feel. Palate is dry and light.

Nice light Cider - to fruity for my taste though. Apple and ascorbic acid are the major influences on the aroma and flavour. No palate at all. Good on a thirsty day - well - nothing else really.

This bottled cider poured a small sized head of white colored mostly diminishing fine to medium sized bubbles that left behind a transparent weak yellow colored softly carbonated body and no lacing. The aroma was only notable as a mild apple one. The mouth feel was tingly with a typical ciderery apple finish. The flavor contained notes of very mild green apples. I thought this cider needed much more than it delivers. Where’s the flavor?

Bottle. Fine sized bubbles, very little carbonation, transparent and a yellow hue. Sweet, apples, and sour aroma. Sweet, syrupy, sour, tart, apple juice, water flavor. Smooth mouthfeel. Light body.

Golden color, no head. Aroma all apple. Sweet and sour apple taste. Simpel but ok...!

Smells like apples with a musty aroma around it. Wine-like apply taste. Light and goes down easy. Sweet all around. Would have preferred something drier...much drier.

Golden orange in colour like David Dickinsons face. Aromas are sweet apple with dead mustiness. Flavours are sweet apples and artificial sweetner found in soft drinks. To be fair at least it hasn’t got the killer alcohol levels of many cheap ciders. So its probably a decent refresher on a hot day - if served very cold.

This pours a very pale yellow with a lot of tight carbonation. Very subtle apple aroma. Fizzy in the mouth, it has a subdued apple flavor that tastes somewhat like ginger ale as the drink warms.
