Golden, clear pour with no head. Aromas of apples, then hints of sweet bread and cake, similar for the taste. Nicely balanced between fruity sugar and tartness. Perfectly sessionable.

Keg @ Barley Mow, Barley. Golden with a fizz. Has a healthy enough apple with a lingering dryness in its finish.

On tap at the Royal Oak, Marlow. Failed to notice "Weston's" in tiny letters at the top of the pump clip, and drank this thinking it was a new Berkshire cidery rather than yet another Weston's brand. Please stop this Weston's, you're starting to act like the megabrewers! Anyway, it's orangey-amber in hue. It's on the sweet side of medium, tasting of apple juice with just the faintest funkiness in the background. Clean, easy drinking, not unpleasant, but pretty forgettable.
