Kelly's Irish Raspberry Hard Cider:
Hello friends, welcome back to the world of beer and it’s satellite, cider moon.  Now be honest, home many of you thought blue moon would have been better?  Yeah, me too.  Alas today we have a cider to review so get your groans and moans out now.  Done?  Good, lets move ahead shall we?  Kelly’s Irish Hard Cider is brewed in that land best known for cider, Florida and per their label, is the drink of the Celts- by that logic, the Celts now live in Florida I guess.  Anyway, Kelly’s puts out at least two ciders: Traditional and Raspberry and today we look at their Raspberry offering.  The cider pours the color of tinted water showing hints of red, a white effervescent head forms and dissipates almost as fast as it forms and a slight nose of sweet raspberry’s that reminds me more of Boo Berry cereal than an adult beverage.   The cider is like most other ciders with a uniform flavor that is of a sweet berry flavor with tons of carbonation.  No real dryness to it like an English cider and the over abundance of sweetness make this a hallmark American cider which really doesn’t float my boat.  I guess okay for those who like sweeter drinks but for me, I’ll do without in the near future.
