Draught at the Claret. It pours clear very pale yellow with no head. The aroma is sweet, tangy, apple pie & custard, some funky farmyard, marzipan and hay. The taste is sweet, tangy apple, apple skin, earth, wood, rhubarb & custard boiled sweets, white grape skin and a touch of alcohol. Medium bodied and flat. I like the aroma but the taste is a touch sweet and lacking in depth. Not bad, but far from their best cider.

Very pale. Winey, soft and sweetish. Tastes like Canadian industrial cider. Quite lame - why bother?
