500 ml bottle, as Balholm Handverk Cider Økologisk, from Vinmonopolet Kvadrat. ABV is 6%. Golden colour, pours very sparkling with the largest white head I’ve seen in any cider - and it takes quite a while to disappear completely. Aroma of cider apples, perfume, sulphur and smelly socks. Dry flavour, light bodied for a 6% cider, but fairly crisp and refreshing. Not a cider I’ll spend money on again, though.

Bottle @ Post-Easter Procrastination, Ulfborg. Pours hazy light amber with small white head. Clear aroma of sour-sweetish apples, with touches of yeast. Dry, vinous flavour of apples, with some sweetish hints. Soft carbonation. Dry aftertaste. Nice.
