Bottle shared thanks to Alexander. Almost clear golden. Dry apple peel, a touch of oak, dry leathery tannins, sweet juicy apple compote, vanilla, soft melon and whisky. Under medium sweet, barely any sourness or bitterness. Over medium bodoed, medium dry. Quite nice.

From bottle at MB2 08.09.24. Clear golden. Fine aroma and taste of red apple peel, leather, sweet apples and toffee. Slightly tart and astringent mouthfeel. Good, with fine and lingering aftertaste.

500ml bottle from Tesco, Newton Aycliffe. Clear golden colour, short-lived white foam head that quickly dissipates to a thin rim and aroma of apple, barnyard funk, caramel. Taste is sweetish, apple, fruity, caramel hint, with some wood, farmhouse funk and drying tannins. Medium bodied, light carbonation, dry tannic finish. Nicely drinkable.
