Box @ Cellar Bar, Chester. Pours a deep hazy reddish mahogany amber. Without knowing anything about this producer I was expecting some kind of Snails Bank / Lilleys / Seacider affair but it's actually nothing of the sort. Oily palate, with a high natural juice content and high astringency with a strong alcohol presence. Ribena, spice, caramel and sherry notes seem to dominate, with no treacle pudding elements at al. An odd one that's hard to like.
