Bottle thanks to Danny, it pours hazy golden with a small, bubbly white head. The aroma is fresh, juicy, earthy, musty, vanilla, honey, creamy and wood. The taste is crisp, tart, juicy, apple skin, white grape, sherbet, must, funk, dirt and wood with a drying finish. Medium body and fine carbonation. Surprisingly great.

Bottle shared in London - big thanks to Daniel. Rating #17,000. Pours lightly hazy yellow-gold with a slight, frothy white head. The nose holds tangy and lightly funky apples, a little damp hay, minimal honey. Light sweet flavor, quite dry, with notes of apple skins, hints of grass, light acidity. Light bodied with spritzy carbonation. Tart finish, lightly funky, more bitter apple peel. Pleasantly dry. Not bad overall.
