A sweet cider blended from dessert and cider apple varieties, gently infused with toffee to give a deep caramel aroma and colour. A toffee apple without the crunch.

Bottle in bag at Prince of Wales, Farnborough. Before I’d had any both the barmaid and two guys at the bar asked what I thought of it, which was a clue that something was up. Sugary toffee aroma, with apple undertones. An opaque toffee brown. So far it ties in with it’s name. The taste then hits you. There is some sweetness hidden in there but it’s overwhelmingly tart. Really sour. Light bodied. Oily. I can understand why people commented on it. However I was fine with the unexpected tartness. Was it supposed to be like this though?

On cask at Euston Cider Tap. fresh sourish, not too sweet. The toffee is smooth and round, fresh with vanilla and toffee in the body. Round with smooth but sharp souring hints. Nice but a bit sourish unround.

Polycask @ The Bree Louise, 69 Coburg Street, Euston, London, England NW1 2HH.Clear medium yellow amber colour with virtually no head. Aroma is moderate to heavy apple, toffee, spicy, fruity apples, sweet apples, candy sweet. Flavor is moderate to heavy sweet with a long duration, toffee - burnt sugar, celery notes. Body is medium, texture is oily, carbonation is flat. Compared to Paul and Thomas i did not at all like all the toffee - fudge in my cider, so luckly we are not all alike ;O) [20111230]
