Bottle, 75cl. It's a hazy pale yellow cider, still and headless. The aroma is quite funky, with lemon, barnyard, vinegar, apple and some apple cores. Pear plays a minor part. It's medium to full-bodied, tart and very softly carbonated. Funky flavor too, with barnyard, vinegar, apple and notes of grass and pear. Medium length tart, funky and vinegar-ish finish. Quite nice actually, but both apple and pear play a too insignificant role I think. Especially pear, but as it's only fifty percent pear juice that isn't surprising. 211103
