Leftover pour from 375mL bottle. Hazy medium brown with no head. Very nice sweet apple with gentle acidity, very nice.

Bottle pour. Pours murky amber. Loads of caramelised apples and tart skins on the nose. Flavour has tons of deeply caramelized apples, slightly tart apple skins, gentle floral notes. This is excellent.

In my tasting at the cidery, this was the goldilocks moment, when the balance was just right. Wonderful sweetness up front, with just enough acidity in the finish to make you crave more. This higher level of complexity had me thinking that the apple character is also more complex, but that was probably illusory.
2025 rate. Ok, this prior review is interesting because this held up perfectly. Still juicy acidity, nice sharpness, bright apple, great complexity, to me excellent balance.

Corked bottle
Measured Final Gravity: 1.097
Skewed Refractometer Reading: 27.2°B
Darker shade of blond, bright. The aroma is a bit fruity and a bit acetic. As indicated by the high gravity, it’s very sweet, but it’s also very acidic; candy floss; not much complex though.
Nice sweet and sour drink, simplistic.

375ml bottle, pours a clear golden yellow with a few bubbles. Aroma brings out lightly sweet apples, toffee and bready notes. Flavour is very complex and unusual for an ice cider, with sweet and sour apples - the sourness is unusual for the style, but meshes wonderfully with the sweetness. There is some toffee and green apple core. Lots of sugar, but it's somehow masked by the sourness. Probably not the most complex ice cider, but really nice nonetheless.
