Ciderboys Magic Apple

It's Cider Day! Oh, wait, it's Wednesday! And today's post is dedicated to the Magic Apple from Ciderboys Cider Co out of Stevens Point, Wisconsin. We're keeping it close to home, here, what with being from Wisconsin and all.

We found this one at a little wine shop near our apartment and thought it sounded tasty, so we gave it a try. We also have now found out that there are more Ciderboys flavors out there, which we will definitely be trying. For now, though, we're going to stick with this one, since we actually got to drink it.

The Magic Apple was described on the label as an apple strawberry hard cider and it comes in at 5% alcohol by volume.  Liz though the apple and strawberry together as one on the label was cute, too


Speaking of Liz, it's her turn to go first. Liz said: Magic Apple has a good flavor and body, with fairly heavy strawberry notes, but it is very sweet. It would be hard to drink more than one. The after taste is very similar to the aftertaste from yogurt, where it almost just doesn't go away.
For these reasons, Liz gives Magic Apple 3 apples.


As for Rob: It tastes more like strawberry than apple, with just a hint of cider. You can taste the sugar minutes later, almost like if Mike's Hard Lemonade made hard cider.
Rob gives Magic Apple only 3 enchanted apples.


Side note: did you know that Mike's does make a hard cider? We didn't know until after we first tried Magic Apple and wrote down our thoughts.  Don't worry, Mike's Ciders will be making an appearance here sooner or later.

We are both excited to try out the other Ciderboys ciders to see how they stack up against Magic Apple. Have you tried Magic Apple? If not, it may be sweet, but it's definitely worth a try.

Until next week, Happy Tasting!
-Rob & Liz
