On tap @ As-Is NYC, December 2019. Labeled as: Foxwhelp. Wine glass pour. Clear, bright, gold body. Smell is of calcified apples. Taste is lightly tart, with bitter apple skin, wine seconds & lots of tannins. There's some generic grocery apple fruitiness in the middle, but it becomes more pithy as it warms. Incredibly dry & even a little numbing. Solid. Eden often back-sweetens, but I can't really tell here.

Bottle shared in London - big thanks to Nathan. Pours unclear yellow with a touch of white foam. Lovely funky dryness, a little tang, semi-ripe apples, moderate sweetness. Medium bodied, fine, airy. Balanced finish, a little dry.

5/8/2019. Sample from bottle courtesy of danlo, cheers Ed! Pours clear pale gold with a very small and short lasting bubbly white head. Aroma of semi-tart green apples, light wood, citrus, barnyard. Light sweetness and medium tartness with a light salty edge. Moderate body, slight oily texture, average carbonation. Nice sour finish. Enjoyed this.

Sample, thanks to Danlo! Pours a golden yellow with light mist. Nice fruity nose, encompassing lightly stewed apple, melon. Taste presents some surprising pineapple and grapefruit notes, alongside a rich apple fruit sweetness, some fleshy moments, skin hints with a nice oily wine-like mouthfeel, comes across a bit like an apfelwein. Pretty good.
