<i>Comments:</i> Rather tannic one that is less aromatic than expected, but finishes very dry indeed.

Aug 26, 2007 At GBBF. Yellow with no head. Light apple aroma. Dry and a little tartness.

Aug 12, 2007 A Mes rate:
Barrel at GBBF. Slightly spiced apple juice. Lacking character but drinkable enough. Rather dull really.

Apr 27, 2007 From the barrel at Reading Beer Festival, April 2006. Just sold as Bridge Farm Cider - no sweetness descriptor, although it is on the sweet side, with lots of juicy apple character. However, it is not short of backbone with a firm tannic grip. Quite perfumed aroma. Hazy straw colour. Very pleasant, to me at least, even if others weren’t too impressed.
