Bottle from the Bristol Wine Company. Pale yellow with no head but plenty of fizz. Light, dry apple aroma with some yeasty skin. Flavour was sweetish, with some acidity in the background, and a gentle, bitter sweet finish. Drinkable, if with a slightly muted character.

Bottled@Beer Hunters, Pori. Pale yellow colour, no head. Sour apples along with some earthyness in the aroma. Flavour is apples and fruits as well as some slight wooden notes. Dry palate.

[i] Bottle from Sainsburys [/i] Pale golden colour, aroma initially a bit sacchriny sweet but this may still be my nose being assaulted by the Kopparberg my friend was bravely drinking (I warned them about drinking such a drainpour)There were some juicy apples as well. I really quite like these single varietal ciders from Thatchers and have drinked just about all of them, though may have to revisit them to rate, this one isn’t my favourite though as I find it’s lacking a bit. Refreshing crisp and sharper than I recalled but certainly not in the premier league of ciders.

A hazy light yellow cider with no head. The aroma is sweet and very apply - the flavor is also very apply and quite dry.
