Bottle shared in Canary Wharf - big thanks to Fergus. Pours clear caramel-red with a few bubbles on top. Great aroma, creamy toffee, well ripened apples, nips of vanilla. Big sweet flavour with loads of ripe, gooey apples, lightly toasted sugars, mellow berry accents, some toffee. A little dry apple skin note. Medium to full bodied, oily and chewy, soft. Warming finish, with further puréed ripe apples, smooth toffee. Great stuff overall.

Bottled at SBWF. Clear golden/amber, still. Fruity medicinal nose. Sweet with full body and rounded mouthfeel. Chalky and peppery, fruity and syrupy. Disharmonious burning sweetness. Medicinal finish.

Tall & thin 500ml bottle, present from Sarah & Jonny. Amber gold colour, no head and aroma of boozy apple, spices. Taste is sweet, apple, apple pie, some booze and tannic peppery and spicy notes. Oily mouthfeel, medium bodied, low carbonation, dry earthy warm tannic finish. Nicely sippable.

Note based rating. Hope to improve on it in the future:Bottle @ Sthlm Beer 2016. Tiny hazy pale golden pour with subtle legs. Very dry with fairly harsh cider apples. Intense with a light alcohol burn. Cool but I prefer the sweet ice ciders.
