Leftovers from tasting at Alex's (thx, man!). Pours a bit hazy brown with no head. Aroma is sweet apples, wood, some caramel. Taste is very sour and sweet apples with lots of wood. Quite good.

Golden-brown. Has a really strong dark toffeeish honey notes. Tart, deep fruitiness and a lot of really nice dark sugars. Toffee, apple, and quite complex. I like this.

Pours a clear brown with light head. Aromas of raisins, tobacco, woody brandy, and sugary baked green apples. Intense. Favors follow same with additional apple pie spice. Beauty.

Bottle, keistered by fiulijn for 6 years, pours a deep dark mahogany / chestnut brown with a tiny head. Nose is full of red berries, toffee, brown sugar and sherry-like oxidation. Flavour is intensely sweet, cloying brown sugar notes, sherry-like oxidation, alcohol and red berries. Cloyingly sweet even for an ice cider, but it works okay. Not one of the more complex ice ciders, but it's pleasant.
