amazing aroma of thick syrupy apples, with loads of honey, and some floral notes. The flavour is much of the same. so sweet, and a touch sour, and exceptional cider

.bottle shared by Brad, thanks!. Brown color. Rich apple aroma with maple. Very sweet and rich palate. Heavy, lightly prickly with carbonation but even more so, acidity. Excellent.

Bottle courtesy of Jacob. Clear deep golden pour leaving some very prominent legs on the glass with a swirl. Intense caramel apple nose with plenty of expected tartness. Light dried cherries, minerals, lemon peal & alcohol. Sweet, sour & fruity taste. Oily, round & tart mouthfeel. Delicious ice cider with plenty of oxidative complexity.

Bottle shared during the 2016 RB Best Awards. Many, many thanks to J. Hux for sharing this treat! Pours clear copper-gold with a few bubbles. Big juicy apple aroma, with light honey, clover, ripe apple. Hearty sweet flavour, rich and smooth, with some apple sauce, light caramel, suggestions of berries. Medium to full bodied, and lightly chewy. Warming on the finish, highly sweet, with lots more ripe apples and juicy apple sauce. Excellent. Absolutely delicious.

Bottle at the Rate Beer Awards Festival Bottle Share. Great acidic apple nose. Dark gold, oily and thick. Very sweet apple flavor, lots of the skin, syrupy and a bit too sweet but pretty good balance.
