12oz can from Astor Wines. Mason glass. Clear MGD body. Scrumpy scented. Sharp, a little musky, woody & candied. Taste is just as great. Sweet, bright citrus, candied apples, a touch bardyard-y, leafy green/faded hops background. A little glue/plastic. Heavier then expected body. Dry, prickly finish. Tasty, especially at the $3 a pop price.

12 oz. can, pours a clear pale golden copper with a small quickly-dissipating white head. Aroma brings out crisp green apple, light sweetness, and a farmhouse character. Flavour is medium-sweet, with a lovely integration of crisp green apple, the right farmhouse character and slightly amped up sweetness from the "Dry". The extra sweetness is very nice, though about on par with the enjoyability of the "Dry". Very nice stuff.

Can - Light funk, cooked apple and peel. Pale gold. Funky tart, acidic and dry. Still very dry but more flavor than the Dry.
