Bottle at the inlaws, 28/04/18. Clear light golden with a fast collapsing head of white bunbles. Nose is sharp apple, light funk, grains, earthy. Taste comprises ripe apple, Orchard wood, smoked straw, hay bale, light wood must. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, drying close. Ok cider but expected more from a high boost offering from these guys.
