Bottled. Yellowish golden colour, minor head, which disappears rather fast. Flavour is green apple skins, some herbs, mild wood and some slight toffee notes. Flavour is rather similar but quite thin as for a body.

330ml bottle from the National Brewery Centre, Burton. Pours clear deep gold, good medium fruit on the nose. Taste presents a nice medium fruit character, some underlying soft tannin with fleshy moments.. keeved perhaps? Not sure. It's clean, balanced and an enjoyable fruity medium overall.

Gift from the sister-in-law. Sweet and sour apple aroma. Dark urine yellow. White head around rim of glass. Initially some short-lived sweetness. Then medium sour - a touch of vinegar to it. Light bodied. A tad oily. No carbonation. Dry finish. Too vinegary and dry for me.

500ml bottle (OlutExpo 2016, Helsinki)
Sweet, bland, a bit cheesy aroma. Watery, fizzy. Some smoky bacon in the vapours in the mouth and the finish, I do like that aspect. Otherwise, just a weak apple fruit body. A bit too watery, just feels thin.

Clear and cooling on a hot day. Careful as original falling down juice. This shouldn’t give a hangover though. Light yellows and very good fruit taste. Clears the palate well

330ml bottle (K Kamppi, Helsinki)
Blandish sweet aroma, gentle apple hints, a little mealy. Sweetish taste, some apple skins. Thinish palate, a bit sugary, carbonation doesn’t quite cut through. Finish has nice tart fruitiness. Bit dull to be honest, compared to the previous cider, but that was a stunner.

500 ml bottle from trade with Cunningham. Clear dark golden body without any head and moderate carbonation. Quite refreshing apple in aroma, mature sweet apples with apple core and a hint of wood. Flavor is medium sweet to dry, nice apple flavor, apple cores and slightly bitter wood. Medium body and decent aftertaste. Quite pleasant without presenting anything really special.
