500ml bottle. Orangey golden amber colour, fizzy off-white head that quickly disappears and aroma of oak, apple. Taste is sweetish, apples with hints of woody oak. Medium bodied, highly carbonated, some tartness at the finish. OK cider.

Got wood?
Pint glass. Dark, clear, active, orange amber body. Fizzy cheap lager head.
Smells of bitter apples & animal crackers. Grease. Old leather, old money, watered down whiskey. Something orange-y near the end. Stuffy.
Once the harsh carbonation dies down, I taste some genuinely nice acid-y & bittersweet cider apples. Unfortunately, the second half is not so nice. Way too much wood. Sucking on popsicle sticks come to mind. Dusty texture. Asprin bitterness. Some faint lingering vanilla & peel.
The carbonation did it no favors, as it tasted decent enough only once it warmed up & flattened out.

W miare dobry cydr smaczny nie za slodki lekko wytrawny. Kolor ciemnawy, rudawy. Co pewnie tlumaczy spedzenie jakiegos czasu w tych 100 letnich debowych beczkach. Tresciwe. Dobrze pasowalo do krulika.

Refrigerated green 0.5 L bottle poured into a white wine glass. Pours clear light amber with no head. No carbonation, light body, and no lacing. Taste is slightly tart apple and a little oak. Don’t care for it.

Pour is a clear amber with a small fizzy head. Aroma is sweet apples. Flavor is again a sweet cider with maybe a bit of the oak after the swallow. Very fizzy and sweet.

Bottle shared at the ChrisO Flags of Many Nations Easter Tasting 2013 - London. Pours clear, bright yellow-gold with a fine, white cream head. Lots of ripe, sugary apples in the nose. Medium to big sweet flavor with more ripe, simple sweet apples, faint funk, light musty dryness. Light to medium bodied with fine carbonation. Sweet finish, lightly dry, with ripe and sugary apples. Not too cloying. Decent.

Clear old gold, lazy carbonation. Slightly spiced, peppery apples; touch of wood, bit sweet smelling. Slightly sweetish, but feeling very carbonated, spritzy harvestapplejuice, applesoda. Short-lived in flavour, very present carbonation, even pushing the acidity. Not bad. Nowhere great.
