Bottle, 1pt, plastic milk-bottle style. Vintage 2008. A clear, golden cider with some off-white bubbles, but still. The aroma is quite vinegar-ish, but with enough apples to deal with it. Alcohol too. The flavor is quite vinegarish too, with a nice apple flavor. Really puckering, and with a good dash of acetone. Lasting finish with alcohol, apples and vinegar. A nice one, really intense, and damn flavorful. 100814

Plastic bottle. Distinct acetone aroma. Some fruit in the nose, not necessarily apple. Hazy golden colour. The flavour starts off shockingly acidic, vinegary. Some acetone. Strangely enough, there is also a little apple. Apple core aftertaste. Tastes good, but is a bit rough on the tastebuds.
