Pale straw, clear white wine coloured pour, still. Aroma of apple skins, white sugars. Sweet and tangy in the taste but with enough bitter skins to balance. Slick, slightly syrupy. It tastes very processed. Their perry version of this was in a similar vein but tasted better. Not great.

Handpull at the Kings Head, Leicester. Light golden or midnight clear whichever you prefer, still, headless. Sweet Appley aroma. Not much to it. Taste is sweet sweet sweet. Not for everyone but a super sweet cider at the end of the night suits me.light battle Skin bitter but it is a serious sugar rush. Better than previous rates suggest but certainly not subtle.

10/6/2022. From BIAB at the 17th Braintree Real Ale Festival. Pours clear very pale gold with minimal bubbly white head. Aroma is sweet apple, fleshy, slightly musty, solvent. Heavy sweetness and minimal tartness. Medium body, clammy sticky mouthfeel, quite flat. Sweet boozy finish. Not a big fan of this.
