Draft to bottle from from lowcostbeer.com. Clear bright light red colour, still with a few minor bubbles. Fruity apple and cherry aroma with wood and a hint of caramel. Taste has a lovely fruitiness with red apples and berries, semi-sweet, plenty of caramel and custard. Easy drinking for the strength. Slick smooth body. Really tasty stuff.

Growler fill from the Low Cost Beer online shop. Pours clear bright red with no head. Aromas of sweetie shop, bubblegum and sweet apple. Taste is sweet apple, faint drying tannin note at the back. Bit odd.

Crowler from LCB. It pours a ludicrous red colour with no head. The aroma is sweet, juicy, white sugar, red delicious apple, raspberry jelly, jam and bubblegum. The is pretty sweet, juicy, smooth, red delicious apple, red berry, cherry, raspberry, red jelly, limited alcohol presence, white sugar, candy, cherry drops and just a hint of dry tannin on the back end. Medium body, flat and oily mouth feel. Can't say I'm a fan. Tastes of those big red shiny American apples. Impressive that it hides the abv, but feels like an alcopop really.

7/10/2020. From BIAB at the Dove Street Inn, Ipswich. Pours clear pale red with a small bubbly white head. Aroma of red apple, light citrus, berries and sweet caramel. Medium sweetness and light tartness. Moderate body, soft carbonation. Nice tart fruity finish. Liked it.

Box @ Station Hotel, Oakengates. Pours a vivid, extremely bright pink, with pinkish white foam topping. No information on what exactly this cider is, and expected fruit additions. Surprisingly aroma is fleshy bittersweet apple fruit. Taste bears similar high juice fleshy fruit with soft gripping tannins, good pithy apple pips and core. Very good clarity of flavour. Excellent fruity cider, even if its complexion is a little unsettling.
