Draught at the Apple, Bristol. Mid-gold and cloudy with an uneven and very loose ring of white head. Aroma of bitter apple skins,TCP, booze. Taste is bittersweet, quickly turning to an extremely drying finish. It ain't complex but it's very well-made. Very boozy and full of proper cider character.

Box pint @ Cromwell's, freebie for smashing the 'Can You Beat The Heat of My Meat' hot chili dog challenge. Pours a deep orange. Lovely natural orchard fruitiness coming through on the nose. Excellent smooth scrumpy feel, nicely accessible whilst retaining a good fleshy tannic character. Really good.

Cromwell's Tap House, Shrewsbury. 24th May 2024, Cider and Sausage Fest, shared half-pint from a box. Apples all the way here, no messing with other fruits, decent!

Panda pop from Lowcostbeer. It pours ever so slightly hazy deep orange brown with no head. The aroma is musty, funky, barnyard, apple skin, apple pie, apple cider vinegar, damp oak and chamomile. The taste is firmly dry and tannic upfront, dry oak, bitter - sweet character, juicy apple, tangy, apple skin, crunchy, funk, autumnal spice, damp leaves, forest undergrowth, splash of acidity with apple cider vinegar and some funky barnyard vibes in the backdrop. It finishes as it starts - bone dry and tannic. Medium body and fairly oily mouth feel. Nice depth and interesting flavour profile. Good hearty cider.
