Bottle sample at a tasting at Yoav's place. Hazy pale golden. Nice juicy apples, light sulphur hint, sweet, honey-ish note. Decent.

500ml bottle from Booths, Ripon. Slightly hazy pale yellow colour, short-lived fizzy white foam head and aroma of barnyard funky apple. Taste is tangy apple, barnyard funk, sweetish with some drying light tannin. Medium bodied, soft medium carbonation, dry mellow finish with alittle lingering sweetness. Quite drinkable.

Keg @ Coracle, Ironbridge. Pours gold with a light mist, not really the expected cloudiness suggested from the name. Aroma has pleasant apple fruit, perhaps a subdued farmhouse hint to it. Taste is perhaps not as crisp and vibrant as standard Sheppys, though still has a decent fruity presence with some gentle vanilla notes, medium carbonation. Would benefit a smoother unfiltered farmhouse feel, but generally it's still quite decent.

On 23rd Jan 2020 I decided to change all my 34 'ticks' for no-beers into rates. Every 'tick' scored a '3', this will not change as they become 'rates'. My 'ticks' were Ciders, Meads, Perrys and Sake. This is a cider!

Bottle from Booths, Media City. Very pale yellow, not at all cloudy as the name suggests. It is tangy and quite sweet with its apple.
