Description
We're a free-thinking craft cider company that doesn't like being constrained. In fact we only like making craft ciders as naturally and as simply as possible - using the very best fresh apples, small batch techniques, wild yeasts and 100% juice. The resulting ciders are full of depth, character and as near to perfection as we can get them

Cask at the white lady. Pours hazy pale gold with no head. Aromas of sweet apples, a but watery upfront. Taste is watery apple juice. Lacks bite. Lacks most things, actually.

Bottle. Roots Farm Shop, East Ayton, North Yorkshire. Mucky, pale orange. No head. Nice, organic, pulpy, woody, crisp, red apple. The wood barrel ageing is evident. Taste is bittersweet. Palate is crisp, dry, and fairly light. Finish is short, light tart, and crisp dry. Smells great, but tails off a bit, turning too light and dry. Like the woodiness to it, though.

Draught. Orangeish golden colour with no head. Aroma is rather sweet apples, some slight yeast, a bit bacony with some sour wood as well. Flavour is sweet apples, some wood, vanilla and sour/tart notes. Overall sweet, but stilldifferent from the "sodapop ciders" in Scandinavia.

Bottle shared at chrisoโ€™s pre-GBBF shindig 2013 - London. Pours clear gold with some white bubbles forming a head. Syrupy ripe apples dominate, accented by light spices. Hugely sweet with light musty apple character. Medium bodied, mostly soft. Sugary finish with some odd grassy bitterness, more ripe and syrupy apple character. Ho hum.

Bottle from Corks of North Street, Bristol. Slightly hazy gold in colour, with decent carbonation. Ripe, yeasty barnyard aroma with a slight fruity edge. Surprisingly easy and inoffensive flavour, with sweetish apple fruit, a slight flinty edge, and boozy finish. A mixed bag, but drinkable overall.
