7.5%. Vintage bottle purchased from New Beer Distributors probably a little less then 2yrs ago. Tulip pour. Clear, bronze, still body. Smells of oak, macerated skins, something like plums & something even more so like fading cardamom. Taste is of mouth-drying oak, table wine, & seriously bitter, tannic cores. Faint apricots are the only attribute standing out. A bit boozy. I was expecting more. Full mouthfeel. Cider runs pretty effortlessly. It's just bland.
