Bottle Sainsburys, Kidlington. Thought that I had already rated this having tried the cask version of this last night, and this bottled version few weeks back. Apple flavoured beer mmhhh... it’s never really gonna’ be a winner is it? Amber coloured, with quite a fruity, zesty flavour with a bitterness at the end, ok so I sort of knew I wouldn’t like it but to fair it wasn’t as bad as I expected.

Amber colour with white fast disappearing head. Aroma of sweet apples. Some hops notes to in the aroma. Flavor is apple and hops. A refreshing beer. But i think it would be better one by one.

An orange beer with a white head. The aroma is sweet and dominated by apples, while the flavor mixes notes of malt and apples. Apple beer is not me - I rather keep cider and beer apart.

Bottle. Brown beer with a apple pie aroma and slightly dry flavour with a thorough slug of apple syrup. Overall not as bad as the average rating would suggest.
