So many juicy, hand-picked strawberries packed into one glass! An oustandingly drinkable premium fruit cider that has all the natural flavours of soft fruit: fresh strawberries with a little apple zing. Far superior to commercial fruit ciders. Beautiful golden colour with a red tinge. Fresh strawberries dominate. Surprising crunchy finish and refreshing taste with subtle strawberry on the palate.

Cloudy copper body and okay foam. Weak strawberry juice, vague apple. Taste is strawberry juice, vague apple, finishing watery. Rather disappointing.

Bottle: Drank from the bottle shared with the wife. Aroma was fruity strawberry. Taste is mix of strawberry and apple, not overwhelming.

That's actual strawberry. Sweet and fruity, a bit too sweet to my liking, but entirely drinkable.

Bottle at home. Clear dark pink to red with small dull pink head. Very hammy strawberries, soft raspberry and a bit if cherry. There's some crisp apple underneath, light leather, dry oak. Medium sweet and under medium sour, very light bitter. Medium bodied with sparkly carbonation and light dryness. Not too shabby, though the jam is a bit too much.

33cl bottle from Abeervinum, Rimini, Italy. Pours orange/pinkish with practically no foam. Aroma has a very evident feeling of strawberries. Body is fairly dense with good carbonation. Taste is pretty sweet. Finish is average.

Keg @ Vinomondo, Conwy. Pours a hazed reddish gold. Aroma has light strawberry, apple fruit. Taste is smooth, with medium-sweet strawberry notes, a touch jammy with underlying apple fruit. Not overly sweet. Decent.

Shared bottle at RB/HD on board Fridtjofen 12.04.18. Orange. Small, white head. Strong aroma and taste of strawberries and strawberry jam, with hints of sweet yellow apples. Good quaffability.

0,5 flaske delt på RBHD-treff ombord på Fridtjofen, april-18: ferskenrød med kort skum. Søte epler, jordbær (naturligvis...) og modne multer i smak og aroma. Frisk ganerenser og behagelig fruktsyre i avslutningen. Sikkert velegnet også som aperitif.
