355 ml can. Pours a pale hay color. Aromas of dry apples and champagne. Flavors follow same; fresh apples and a bit of champagne. Crisp and very dry. Not getting the funkiness or sediment that other more. Seems very processed.

750ml bottle. Pours a hazy pale gold with lots of sediment and a thin, fizzy, short lived, white head that fully dissipates. Aroma of barnyard, funky yeast and red apple skins. Sweet fruity flavour of baked red apple, funky yeast and light alcohol in a crisp, dry, tart, acidic finish. Medium body with a slick texture and average carbonation. Juicy, with some complexity. Very nice.

750ml on Phill's deck. Appearance: hazy straw with a weak head due to the high carbonation. Aroma: sweet baked apples. Taste: along the same lines. Overall: good one.

Poured from 750mL bottle (2018 version). Hazy gold, fair bit of sediment at the bottom of the bottle. Dry, huge carbonation, apple skin, a bit of funk, very mild alcohol notes. Pretty good.

750mL bottle, explodes upon opening and retains a lot of action for a long duration, and there's tons of sediment floating everywhere. Pours it a hazy pale golden with a small white head. Aroma is full of barnyard funk, crisp apple skins, and champagne-like effervescence. Flavour is bone dry, with an intense champagne-like effervescence replete with very high carbonation, followed by wild yeast, lots of barnyard funk, and some leather. There's maybe a touch of residual sweetness on the finish, while retaining that intense carbonation. Unusual but beautifully made. Excellent.

Very effervescent cloudy gold with a bubbly head. Light cooked apple and baking spice. Insanely carbonated and some cooked apple with a fizzy finish. Carbonation is overwhelming and distracting. Lots of booze in the finish.

Bouteille 750ml, gracieuseté de msjpearson, Thanks Mike! Couleur jaune paille voilée, mousse blanche évanescente. Arôme de pomme, légèrement acide, levure sauvage. Goût de pomme, sauvage, miel, légèrement sucré, pelure de pomme, pointe d'alcool, légère acidité. Carbonatation très élevée, corps moyen.

RERATE (750ml bottle, 2019 I think, shared by Herbalist - thanks!) No real notes on this one but it was massively more enjoyable than the 2017 vintage at the festival. Exceptional apple concentration but lovely skin tannin and crispness, well-executed funk, superb Champagne-type mouthfeel, not that much residual sweetness for a cryo-concentrated product. Upping my rating substantially. (Bottle sample @ Witchstock 2018, Toronto, Sept 29/18) Pours hazy medium gold with a fizzy white head. Notes of semi-sweet apple juice and flesh, some slightly more bitter notes (seeds/stems/skin?), rather light funk and light to moderate oak, warming alcohol. Sweetish up front, semi-sweet through the finish, rather short aftertaste with clean crispness. Medium-bodied, slick, with light effervescent sparkling carb. I was expecting a bigger flavour concentration and heft from a 12% apple wine, and thought this was a little softer and simpler than hoped. (7-3-7-4-16 = 3.7)

A hazed golden blonde cider with aroma of sweet apple with light acidity, light Brett, light lactic notes, alcohol warmth, very nice. In mouth, a nice tart sweet fruity mix of apples, doughy character, light mineral notes, alcohol warmth, interesting. On tap at Bar Lupulus.
