500ml bottle from The Offy, Whitstable. Drunk at home in France after picking up Willow our foster dalmatian. Pours clear, with an extremely pale greenish complexion. Typically Kentish medium sweet cider.. fresh and clean with a pleasant sweetness, not too sticky. Nice

500ml bottle from The Offy, Whitstable. Pours clear with a defined pink hue. Characterful apple fruit with distinct sweet berry notes, though none used apparently. Gentle carbonation, quite flavoursome, interesting.

500ml bottle from Beers of Europe. Sparkling, pale orangey pink colour, short-lived fizzy head and aroma of ripe strawberry, minty, chewing gum. Taste is sweet, strawberry, apple, and green mint, sugary with some citric acidity. Medium bodied, spritzy carbonation, sweet fruity & minty finish. Kind of OK.
