Cider Crate Tasting Notes:
Smell:
Strong, extra sweet fleshy apple like a red delicious.
Initial Taste: Medium bite, semi-thick texture, strong apple taste
After Taste: Long lasting sweet apple finish, almost like you ate the peel of an apple.
On ice: Less sweet, less flavour but with more carbonation.

Additional Notes:  As with most of the Bud Lime series of strong beers, this is a sweet alternative to a beer.  It tastes more like a cider then a beer, but has an obvious beer base.  Extra sweet, fans of a traditional cider would find this extra sugary and very commercial.
