Botella. Pours a very nice deep golden clear colour with a medium short lasting head. Mild tart bit sweet lagered apple aroma. Fair mouthfeel. The flavor is refreshing with a bit tart largered apples and a woody touch. Bit sweet tart apple finish.

Canuckistani (41) - Dundas, Ontario, CANADA - OCT 7, 2008
Bottle from LCBO. Starts off OK, but before I was 1/4 way in it became almost nauseatingly sweet. There’s better ciders.

MrManning (1942) - London, Ontario, CANADA - OCT 6, 2008
Bottle from the LCBO- Deep yellow, orangey pour with thin ring of white head and a very bubbly body. Quite a vague nose on this one. Faint green apple juice, some straw, white grapes. Tastes of sweet macintosh apples, some white grapes. Really not all that complex at all. Nice acidity with a light body. Quite refreshing, very easy to drink. Just not overly complicated or rewarding.

dornoy (694) - Copenhagen, DENMARK - SEP 27, 2008
Tastes quite good and fresh, but not quite as other ciders from the sam producer.

MiP (11258) - Sønderborg, DENMARK - SEP 9, 2008
Bottle, 4.5%. Citric aroma. Clear golden colour. Stable white head. Sparkling. The flavour is slightly citric. Hint of apple, but not much. Weak and not citric enough.

downender (4186) - Bristol, Gloucestershire, ENGLAND - SEP 3, 2008
Draught at the Prom, Bristol 3/9/08. Golden with no head and plenty of carbonation. Sweet apples, a vague hint of yeast and a sickly finish. No thanks.
