A fruiend brought a 3l bottle of this over a while ago and was soo disgusted he had to go buy something else, serves him right for buying so cheap! Aroma is sweaty, perhaps some apples flavouriong of some sort, but generally rubbish. Taste is similar, such an uninspiring drink it seems unbealiveable they still sell it.

Pale yellow with a light to non-existent head. Tart and tangy apple smell. Slightly sour and musky. Flavor is tart and apple like. Some notes of earthyness. Apple juice with too much sugar it seems. Not too shabby though.

Clear gold color, light carbonation and disipating head as expected. The nose is musky and a bit tart with some grassy apple notes. The flavor is a little tart, some sugars. Seems like an alcopop, not much of a cider here. Low carbonation and refreshing albeit.

used to drink this a bit back in the day. one of the more classic flavored cider but less easily found anymore. snakebite, black velvet. pours yellow clear with effevesense and little to no head. pretty thin flavors for a cider with subtle macintosh apples and tart background. butter backing as well. much less alcohol then then i thought...thus the less flavor.

Bland, Bland, Bland, No taste whatsoever. Pours clear with a light foam. Smells good to, but doesn’t pack a punch anywhere else. Grab a Hornsby’s or Woodchuck.

Pours a medium golden yellow color. Kinda weak flavor is a little sweet and a little sour. Not a whole lot going on.

Pale gold with no head. Sweet aroma and taste. That’s about all there is to say. I assume apples were used in its manufacture, but they have left little trace on the final product.

Pale yellow beer with a small head. Fruity, light tart aroma with a notes of apple. Lots of apple fruityness in a light tart flavor.
