Logs for beers from this brewery

This didn’t stand out to me much, but it wasn’t offensive or bad. Kind of a solid, plain cider.
A quite-tart, but super-balanced, round fruitiness, somewhere between grape and apple. Not too funky, but still complex. It didn't quite taste like other sour beers, but it was definitely sour, and very, very tasty.

Still very, very nice. It's been a long time!
I think this the Finnriver cider I had? Tart, slightly sweet, nothing out of the ordinary.
Tart start, spicy finish with hints of the pepper's fruit. Sweet light cider middle. The heat of the pepper is moderately strong but doesn't get worse after repeated drinks.
What a pretty color! Mildly tart, clean, fruity cider. I liked this a lot, even if I didn't really detect any rosehip. I don't drink a lot of ciders so there's no good comparisons I can make, but this was good.
Nice dry pear cider. Doesn't taste like apple juice, which is like... 80% likely when trying ciders. Nicely bitter and tart. Real tasty.
Smells firstly of yellow sweet apples and then of a fruity mellow hops. Tart and acidic taste, and that fruity hops comes across as a spongy yeasty body character. Finishes tart. Nice dry cider.

Dry with good fruit flavor, but the lavender never quite sits well with the rest of the experience. Is it fruity? Is it flowery? Only her doctor knows for sure.
Pleasant currant flavor and finish. A little tang from the currant and cherry is just enough, any more cherry though and it'd be too much. Dryish finish with no tack.

I'm glad I only had a taste... Cider and habanero really don't mix well. The spiciness is way to much to be enjoyable.
A stronger Southerner might enjoy this, but I am a big weenie and it was way too spicy!
Good cider with a sweet start and sharp finish.

Smells AMAZING. Oh my gosh. Taste has a hint of spice, not bad at all
I have to admit, I didn't get a lot of barrel flavor in this cider, and I kept wanting to find it. This is a sweet cider that goes down very easily, so in that regard it was enjoyable. But I wouldn't go out of my way to find it.
