Bottle from the cidery. Duvel glass. Oily yellow color. Lingering protein & sediment. Flat. Smells of sharp apple skin & veggies. Melon, gum, acetone. Tastes of wild fermented, acidic apples. Hay, butter, gum, yeast, lingering zest. Slick feel & some hinting vinegar that I don’t like. This bitter zest note I’m getting saves everything & then some. A fair tannic note steps out as it warms a touch. Not quite sidra, not quite farmhouse. Needs something.
