750ml bottle from the Apple Thief. Golden colour, no head and aroma of apple, caramel, funk hint. Taste is sweetish, appley, ripe fruit, mellow, caramel, fleshy, vanilla, wood, with some tartness and bittersharp tannin. Medium bodied, light carbonation, medium sweet tart & tannic finish. Nicely drinkable.
