Bottle from Melbicks Garden Centre, Coleshill. A mostly clear dark gold with brief white fizz. Aroma of green apple, sugars, light blossom and barnyard. Taste is sweeter than expected, a little syrupy, but a nice mellow non-artificial fruitiness and light tang. Near medium smooth bodied, unusually for 4%, moderate fizz. Quite tasty once you get into it.

Clear golden. Applesauce, soft sweet apple tones, some dry wood. Faint sweet, tart, medium dry, a bit shy, light carb. Pleasant, simple, plain, pure.

500ml bottle @ Nando's Telford Southwater before watching 1917 (good film). Pours clear gold, lightly sweet commercial apple nose. Crisp, gently fruity, clean but it's a touch light, a little watered down and lacks punch. Fine accompaniment to an extra hot (not that hot really) Nandos.
