500ml brown bottle. Deep gold, hazy, no head. Sweet apple nose, some yeast and leathery spice notes. Taste has big fleshy apple fruit up front, sweetish dark sugars.

Bottle at home in London, after biking for 40 minutes and running for 30 minutes. Pours clear, bubbly gold with no head. Holds a dusty, slightly dank apple aroma with just hints of sugar. Flavor is medium sweet, rather dry, with some faintly tangy apples speckled with must. Light to medium in body with fizzy, lively carbonation. Semi-dry finish, not too sweet, more musty apples. A very well-rounded cider I would say. I really wouldn’t guess this is over 5% abv. Solid.
