Bottled (AbM). Goldeny orange colour with minor head, that goes away quickly. Aroma is sweet and green apples, some funky notes along with mild nectary and some yeasty notes. Flavour is very similar, but also has a nice tartness to it. Surprisingly bodied for being 4.5 % abv. Yet also refreshing and quite easy to drink. Good session cider.

From a bag in a box at the Portcullis cider festival, Clifton, Bristol 12/08/10. Hazy gold in colour with no carbonation. Dryish, apple juice aroma. Relatively easy drinking, with plenty of fruit, some skin and a dryish finish. Good.
