Pros: Dry, smooth. Cons: Sour, almost sickeningly so; lacks character.
Hornsby's Pub Draft Cider, like most of E&J Gallo's offerings, isn't bad, but it isn't too good, either. Relative to other American ciders such as Ace and Woodchuck, its flavor is very simple, reminiscent of artificially flavored sour-apple ...
Pros: Smooth and easy to drink with no alcohol taste Cons: Smooth and easy to drink with no alcohol taste
So who is this George Hornsby anyway? He puts out a Premium Quality Hard Apple Cider. His pet Rhinoceros graces the label of this Authentic Pub Draft but we are granted no story about the man himself. After searching the label ...
Pros: Crisp and refreshing cider for adults... Cons: None
Friday night is Caconti's pool night, the one day of the week when he leaves the well-manicured campus of Wake Forest University to experience some of the "real" world of North Carolina. Playing billiards with tobacco workers and bikers is a...
Pros: Not Too Sweet, Not Too Dry, Just Right Cons: If You Drink Too Much, You Will Probably Throw Up
As I compose this review, I am swigging the dregs of my first bottle of Hornsby's Draft Cider. This is pretty good stuff, and I am going to keep it on hand for when the urge to drink a beer-like alcoholic beverage strikes.
Pros: Exceptional flavor, easy to drink Cons: Easy to drink...sometimes one may forget they are drinking alcohol.
George Hornsby's Draft Cider is a great-tasting alternative. It is apple cider, but with a kick. It has a very sweet and wonderful taste with the sour perkiness of the best apples, much like that of the apple cider your grandmother used to make in...
Pros: Crisp and refreshing, dry cider perfection... Cons: None
A big lover of cider, I was unbelievably excited to find a new Hornsby's for sale at my local grocery store. After a little dance of celebration, I brought my six-pack to the counter with great anticipation. Would the Amber Hard Cider be as good as I...
Pros: Sweet, Easy to drink, Not too strong Cons: None I can think of
.....to beer that is. Many of my friends who do not drink beer at all, citing that the taste is simply horrible, like to fall back on this drink. It has no harsh taste, it is not strong, and you will have no idea you are getting drunk, so DRINKER...
Pros: Goes with most any dish or just alone, refreshingly crisp, easiest brand of hard cider to find in most areas. Cons: only sold in glass containers (as far as I've found)
I have only been a cider drinker for about 3 years and have found them to be amazingly varied in body, style, and flavor. I first tried Hornsby's at a pub in the UK when a friend suggested that I try a cider.
I was expecting something like apple...
Pros: Taste great (and less filling?) Cons: Can be hard-to-find or overpriced
Like many others on here, I'm not a beer person. I acquired the coffee taste, just not the beer taste. In any case, I think Hornsby's is a great alternative.
I first had this with my former sister-in-law (apparently my preference in drinks...
Pros: Very sweet and smooth Cons: For some people: Very sweet and smooth
I hate beer. I think that it is gross.
With that said....I'll tell you about my like for Hornsby Cider. I think that Hornsby Cider has a very sweet smooth taste. I'm not one for bitter aftertastes or tart drinks...so Hornsby Cider takes the...
Pros: Better than Lemon Cider Jack Cons: Nothing's Worse Than Lemon Cider Jack
Hornsby's was the only choice for hard cider at the store
I stopped at, after a long day's work at an out of town
training session. I'd never tried it, but I'm always willing
to try new varieties. After half a bottle, well chilled, I ...
Pros: Great taste Cons: Slightly more costly than beers
Hard cider is an amazing product any way you look at it. Alcohol within a liquid that people have enjoyed for centuries because it tastes great. Just a little more cost than the cheapest beer, but much more enjoyable to me. Hornsby's Cider is one of...
Pros: Sweet, Bubbly, No Foam, Twist Off Cap Cons: Doesn't taste like it has alcohol, so you tend to guzzle it.
I have heard many people refer to Hornsby's as being a "Chick Beer." I think that is incredibly stupid, first of all, it isn't a beer, and secondly, that would place it in a category with Coors Lite and other such abominations. I suppose the...
Pros: Great clean crisp dry taste. Cons: Hard to find (in Texas anyway)
I came to America 5 years ago from England. I was used to British beer and Cider. I tried lots of American Beers trying to find something I could substitute for expensive imports from the UK. I forgot all about Cider, I didn't think you could get the...
