Bottle sample @ RBBWG 2016, thanks René. Léger orangé, col fin blanc disparaissant vite. Pomme sur des notes herbacée, le tout est sec mais gardant une petite dose d douceur. Râpeux en bouche avec qcq tanins, pomme cara en toute fin de bouche. Reste fraiche, sans vraiment avoir trop de complexité.

0.33 l bottle at RBBWG 2016 in Antwerpen. Clear, golden amber, white head. Sweetish, slightly sourish aroma of caramel, honey, apples and white grapes. Sweetish, slightly sourish, fruity taste of green apples, white grapes, some honey and caramel, followed by a short, slightly bitter, rather tart finish. Thin to medium body, slightly creamy and spritzy mouthfeel. Nice!

20/II/16 - 33cl bottle @ RBBWG V (Ben's place) - BB: IV/16 (2016-206) Thanks to Benzai for sharing the bottle!
All right, new country tick!
Clear orange cider, no head, some big bubbles. Aroma: dry, bit fruity, almonds, sweet, some honey, bit oxidized. MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: sweet and fruity start, bit sourish, pretty dry. Aftertaste: some tannins, dry finish, citrus, spicy touch. Not too bad actually.

Bottle. Crystal clear deep golden color, champagne bubbles, white edge head. Aroma of fresh fruit. Taste has fresh apple slices with an edge of tartness, long dry finish. Decent.

Bottle from Coop, Guernsey. The cider starts smooth, very nice tart with fruity hints. Fresh, highly drinkable and still deep. The mainpart is deep-fruity, tart, not too dry but still fruity. On the tongue remains a tart, fruity-dry and very nice round apple aroma! Great cider!!
