Bottle, 50cl. Label says 75cl. Vintage 2018. It's dark straw to pale golden in color, almost entirely clear, with lots of carbonation leaving a thin layer of white bubbles. The aroma is lightly alcoholic, with a hint of funk and sulphur, but mostly it's ripe apples, feeling like it's not all apples meant for eating. It's quite effervescent, rather hefty carbonation actually, a bit warming, full-bodied and with a little astringency. Ripe apple, some apple core bitterness and bark notes, grass, alcohol and a faint touch of whitecurrant or gooseberry in the flavor. Lasting dry finish with ripe apple, some berries, grass and alcohol. A bit harsh this one, and judging from previous ratings it might have been better when fresher. And hopefully less carbonated. 210908

Vi er i Ulvik, høyt motiverte for en dag dedikert til cidersmaking. Syse Gard er andre stopp i dagens løype, og her får vi gå planken. Vaor er silkemyk og innsmigrende. Klar strågylden uten skum eller karbonering, tradisjonell stil med andre ord.

At the cidery with Holmen1, JFE and JKE on tour with Fridtjofen 12.06.20. Clear pale straw colour. No head. Fine aroma of fresh red apples and yeast. Lingering taste of cider apples, red apples, yellow apples and apple zest with some bitterness. Uncarbonated. Good drinkability.
