Our Jaggy Thistle is a vintage, CAMRA-approved scrumpy, naturally fermented over the colder months.

The cider is laid down in ex-spirit casks to mature, producing a slow-fermented, unfiltered, unpasteurised, cask-conditioned finish. Our Jaggy Thistle really is one of a kind!

Draft at IMBC 2013. It pours clear gold with a small bubbly white head. The nose is juicy apple, white grape, vinous, wood and elderflower. The taste is crisp, bitter-tart apple, white grape skin, vinous, wood and mild acidity with a dry, crisp finish. Medium body and low carbonation. Great balance between sour and sweet. Delicious.

Canister. Sightly hazy golden colour, not much head. Aroma is apples, some wood, vanilla, cheesy notes as well as mild berries. Flavour is apple juice, cinegar, acidic notes and mild alcohol. Too acidic.
