Bottle, courtesy of fonefan.As Traditional Medium Cider. It’s an almost clear one, golden in color. Some coarse bubbles on top. Woody apple aroma with some hints of sugary fruityness. A bit thin on the palate, medium sweet, with a little sugary touch in the flavor. Mostly apples of course, and a hint of wood and yeast. A tasteful and quenching one. Drinks easily but is a bit sweet. 110130

3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Polycask at Oxford Beer Festival 16-10-09 Pours a very hazy yellow, difficult to see through. The nose is very rustic with perhaps a touch of sulphour. Taste is quite lovely, very appley more medium than dry, nice sweet apples, good bite, some tannins, feels thick in the mouth almost a little chewy. Possibly my favourite beverage of the evening.
