Bottled@HBF2016. Yellowish golden colour, not too much head. Aroma is fudge, apples, some wood and sugary ripe apples as well. Flavour is apples, sugary and some mild wooden notes. Balanced, even though it’s quite sweet.

500ml bij de mitra Leeuwarden, schenkt helder en prikkelend in, oogt oranje/roze zonder kraag. aroma van appels, zoetige snoepjes, floraal, honing, en er zit nog iets zeer kenmerkends in echter kom ik er niet op....aaarrrrgggghhhh... smaken zijn matig zoet, licht bitter, zwak zuurtje voor een cider, redelijk fruitig van appeltjes uiteraard, prikkelend in de mond, iets van honing, niet al te dik en door de whiskey is hij niet te zuur en ook niet te zoet, medium body (had van mij iets dikker gemogen), glad van textuur, afdronk is lang prettig zoet/zuur fruitig. Ik vind het wel een goede poging...

500ml bottle from Asda - Obviously a gimmick. Fluorescent orange pour with a short last white fizz. Heavily carbonated spits aroma of sour apples with a hint of wood smoke. Taste is not as sickly sweet as I’d feared, with a smoked finish at the end. I’ve had much worse... and as far as apple cider goes, it ain’t that bad.
