Dabinett single variety. Appel, schillen, takjes. Ruw en schorsig met gelukkig net een vleugje fruitzoeten. Maar ook zuren, een citroenachtig scherp steekje komt door het wilde funky sapje heen. Lekker natuursapje.

375ml bottle shared with Soph. Pours a lightly misty yellow, aroma has light cheesy funk, lemon. Taste wasnt what i expected. Has a drying sour character with perhaps more in common with an extremely dry gueuze than a cider. A light acidity rescues it a little before distant apple notes drift in on the finish. Fine natural carbonation. Could do with more of a fruity presence.
