The Miller Lite of Ciders

by bkalafut bkalafut is a Top Reviewer on Epinions in Restaurants & Gourmet, , Nov 10 '04
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 ...

Another reason to drink in the morning

by carnut2k4 Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Nov 06 '04
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...

A New Taste Sensation (For Me)

by thedragonweyr Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, May 18 '00
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.

For reasons...

This is WAY Better than Plain Apple Cider!

by CPUENGR , Jun 28 '01
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...

George Hornsby in a Tux...

by caconti Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Apr 14 '00
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...

A Great Alternative.....

by oktoberfest , Mar 09 '00
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...

Hornsby's tastes too much like beer.

by egab01 , Nov 03 '00
Pros: Honestly I can't think of any.
Cons: Tastes and smells way to much like beer.
Ok short and to the point I do not like Hornsby's Cider, it tastes and smell too much like beer to me!

If you have read my other cider review you will know that I really enjoy cider and hate beer and why. I have tried about 14 different...

A good intro to the world of ciders

by caithnessfan Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Jan 06 '01
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...

Thank You, Sir...May I Have Another

by Jimmy_Dahl , Jul 10 '00
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...

Sweet enough for non-beer drinkers

by amytart , Jan 20 '00
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...

Must Have Been a Bad Apple

by Virtuanna , Feb 06 '00
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

Simply Delicious

by Smac11231 , Jan 18 '00
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...

Not Just a "Chick Beer"

by DonGiaconia , Feb 08 '00
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...

Golden Wonder

by crabtrp , Mar 01 '01
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...
