While at my local watering hole, I spot this strange tap board shaped like an apple. To say the least, I was intrigued. According to the website, Woodchuck gets it's named from the nickname given to the "Vermontiest of Vermonters". A Marmota Monax Monax (a groundhog a.k.a. a woodchuck) graces the label while holding an apple...cute, if you into that.
The nose of this cider has a big apple nose with a hint of nutmeg and cinnamon rounding it off. It has an average white head which is a little bittersweet. The taste is sweet, almost too sweet to be considered a beer. A big, crisp apple flavor comes through on the first sip and stays to the bottom of the glass with a little bitterness on the finish. All in all, Woodchuck has produced a very well balanced cider. I can not wait to try more bottlings from this company. This is a good "beer" for non or beginning beer-drinkers. Also, a good beer for people with celiac...I know you guys love the drink too.
