In October 2020 we experimented by pressing three barrels of Ashton Bitter each co-fermented with a different sharp apple variety. This trio showcases the importance of apple choices; how even an apple as powerful and astringent as Ashton Bitter will perform different dances with different partners. Each bottle is similar but ultimately unique; each difference subtle and delicate.

750ml bottle from Scrattings. Slightly hazy orange gold colour, short-lived bubbly white foam head and aroma of apple, woody funk. Taste is tangy, apple, slightly tart, with fruity, wood barrel notes, farmhouse funk and drying earthy tannins. Medium bodied, light carbonation, dry bitter tannic finish. Nicely drinkable.
