Box@The Bree Louise, London. Golden colour, no head. Aroma is sweet apples, some yeast, mild nectar and quite sweet. Flavour is apples, fruits, some vanilla, mild sweet notes as well as some slight wooden notes.

Polypin, room temperature @ The Plough Inn, Taunton, Somerset.
Bright, medium gold and still. Very dry, grainy apple pulp nose with lots of straw, minerals and mouse fur. A supple shortlived sweetness upfront, very dry in the back, really sucked the saliva out making it oddly more refreshing. Fresh, sharp green apple flavour, quite tart with a doughy pear fruit base. Finish is short, the body very light. Quite clean, again some mineralesque liquor comes through. A simple cider, easy quaffing!
