To the left! Crazy depth in the acidity supplemented by a solid sweetness. Drop barrel character. Raisins and caramel. Amazing stuff!

Bottle @ home, thanks to Lukaduke. Another completely dried out cork from Eden. Not sure if I mis-stored these bottles or if their corks just suck ass. Dark golden orange appearance with no head. Caramel, sugar, hint of rubber, booze, baked apples in the nose. Medium body. Not overly gooey. The flavor is also not overly sweet compared to some ice ciders. Vanilla, toffee, caramel, and candy. A little boozy. Good but probably not $25 good.
