Bottle, 50cl swing-top, at Ekspedisjonen. Label indicated 75cl though, guess they ran out of bottles at some point. Anyway, it's a lightly foggy, straw to golden colored cider with some bubbles. Sulfur, sweat, chicken farm notes, alcohol, apple cores, flowers and funk in the aroma, but mostly it's apple. All the other stuff are just sitting in the back. It's full-bodied, dry, warming and lightly acidic on the palate, with a gentle carbonation. Fruity, lightly grassy flavor with lots of apple, as well as the funky stuff found in the nose. Chickenfarm, sweaty feet, sulfur and some cellar. Some flowery notes and fruity sourness too. Unusual, interesting, strange, nice and not so nice. Can't really decide if it's a 737413 or 636311 rating. Went for the higher one, and will adjust if I ever have this cider again. 220729
