2.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20 MesandSim (7109) - London, - AUG 10, 2009
A Mes rate: cask at the Marble Arch. Looks like lime cordial. The only alcoholic beverage that I have ever seen lighter than this generally hails from Russia. Big and fruity and very dry but at the same time sooooooooooooo sweet. No excitement, no character, no win.

Cask @ Gastropub Tuulensuu
Looks like water and I actually took a sip of the glass believing that I was drinking from my water glass. Light, refreshing aroma has some sour apple. Flavour is rather sour and has lots of apple too. Some sugar notes also occur. An OK real cider, but could be less sweet.
