On tap at McKay's Taphouse, pours a clear dull yellow with almost no head. Aroma brings out lots of dry apples, with subdued saffron in there. Flavour is medium sweet with green apples, with only subdued saffron notes. Really nicely integrated. Unusual adjunct for a cider, but it works really well.

Blond color. Mild aroma of anise bread. Dry mouthfeel, mild acidity, light cider flavor.
Not a big fan of it, but it’s an original experiment.
