Made using two different apple types to create an excellent medium-dry cider with a clean, fresh palate and a well defined appley character.

On tap at The Chandos. Pale clear gold lasting white head. Sweetish simple apple flavours. Aroma is not great. Ok but very simple bordering on the industrial

Cask @ The Doo’cot, Edinburgh [290713]
Light golden, clear, fizzy, no head
Aroma of soft tart sweet apple
Taste of sweet apple, touch of apple skin, simple flavour, crisp, some artificial notes but not a bad apple flavour
Palate - High carb, light body. Finish of soft sweet apple, tangy palate, clean finish
Overall - Better than Strongbow, soft easy simple cider, not that bad at all

On tap @ the Cramond Brig. Pours golden, actually smells of intense apple and actually tastes fairly similar. The palate has a good body a big tangy texture and a refreshing zing. Overall, pretty good.

On tap at the Captain Kidd, Wapping 08/02/10. Golden with moderate carbonation. Sweet apple juice, a vague hint of wood. Forgettable, but not unpleasant.

Draught at Duke of Argyll, London
Blond color, almost no head. Very little apple character here, some sweetness (pleasant), light acidity, but not much character overall. Too simple.
