330ml bottle. Golden amber colour, off-white foam head that dissipates away and fruity apple aroma. Taste is sweet, juicy apple with some crisp tartness, vanilla, caramel and light funk. Medium bodied, slightly spritzy carbonation, dry tangy finish. Nicely drinkable.

330ml bottle from mini-marche near the Louvre, Paris. Pours clear gold, floral fruity aroma. Taste is medium-sweet with some soapy, floral moments. Simple, straightforward, accessible but flavoursome mainstream French cider.

Just a random grab from a grocery in Paris. Pours a rosy clear with white fizz. Fruity apples and syrup nose. Taste definitely on the sweet side, nice apple crispness to it. Overall a little to sweet for me

Fra flaske på Mi2 Cardinal sep-16: uklar, dyp gylden med kort skum. Nyydelig eplearoma og -smak. Passe søt, en herlig sommerlig leskedrikk som kan konsumeres med stor glede hele året. Epler og pærer...

Shared bottle at Mi2 at Cardinal 12.09.16. Golden. Off-white head. Fantastic aroma of apples and apple peels. Similarly taste, with a hint of pears and smoke. Slightly astringent. Excellent. And excellently quaffable!!! Medium carbonation.

330 ml bottle, Cardinal Pub & Bar, Stavanger. ABV is 4.5%. Deep golden colour, pours sparkling with a moderate white head that actually lasts a while. Aroma of cider apples, hints of caramel, oak and sulphites. Medium sweet flavour, surprisingly rich moutfeel for its moderate strength, notes of cider apples and sweet eating apples. Again hints of caramel, oak and sulphites.

An amber cider with a fast disappearing beige head. The aroma has notes of apples and caramel. The flavor is sweet with notes of apples and flowers, leading to a tart finish.
