32cl twist top bottle (new bottle size medal please) from LowCostBeer, can't find a BB date, but probably old. Cloudy yellow, dirty looking, no head worthy of the name. Smells and tastes of cooking apples. This is going to give me stomach ache, but I shall drink all 32cl of it!

Bottle at home, 24/07/18. Hazed golden orange with a decent off white cap that retains well for a cider. Nose is funky apple, caramel, smoked straw, stewed apple skins, toasted brown sugar. Taste comprises bitter apples, straw, light vinous edge, toffee, sweet and sour vibes. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, drying close. Decent cider ... good flavour profile for the ABV.

Bottle from Beers of Europe. Appearance - cloudy amber with a thin head. Nose - properly sour apples, and apple skins. Taste - more ripe but sour apples. Sour apple sauce. Palate - virtually no carbonation, close to medium bodied with a long tangy middle section that leads through the finish. Overall - lovely cider.

Bottle at home in London - picked up at Kris Wines. Pours clear gold with a slight, foamy white head. Lovely and dynamic aroma, with some juicy apple character, alongside musty apple skins and cellar. Medium sweet flavour with ripe and juicy apples, some funky dryness, bitter peels, impressions of cinnamon. Light bodied with average to lively carbonation. Clean finish, moderately drying, with nice apple juice character, cut through with musty dryness and more bitter apple peel. You also get hints of ginger and cinnamon, and very subtle tartness. I really like this one. It has decent complexity and is immensely drinkable.

Flavour is tart apple, tannins, woody, oak, leather, rubber, barnyard, bittersweet. Medium bodied, soft to medium carbonation, drying sourish woody tannic finish. Quite OK.

Auf der einen Seite recht angenehm im Apfel mit einer bestimmten Saeure, auf der anderen etwas an Essig mit Gras. Durchaus zwiespaeltig, aber alles in allem recht angenehm.

Luscombe Farm Organic Devon Dry Cider
750 ml bottle. Sparkling, gold colour, some haze. Straightforward appley aroma. Lots of fruit in the flavour which engenders a certain sweetish feel on the palate even though its actually quite dry. Just a hint of tannin. Crisp, refreshing mouthfeel. An easy drinking, quaffable cider if a little short on traditional character. Maybe a little too well behaved in bottle.

Tap, The 78, Glasgow, RBESG 07. Really enjoyed this, cloudy straw yellow. Sharp and fortified alcoholic really fruity apple nose, just a touch of oakiness. Lucious appley mouth with some sharpness and a bit of tannin. Finishes with a nice crisp bite, lasting dryness.
