Box @ Dog & bell. Pink#gold, lace, cloudy. Looks like pink grapefruit juice. Sour, bitter, lightly funky nose, grapefruit juice? Quite tart, citrus, grapefruit, apple skin, tannic, puckery finish. Interesting. Not sure what's added, but it's still cider

Panda at home, thanks to Danlo - Cheers Ed, 01/01/23. Pale, almost translucent yellow, with a fast collapsing white head. Nose is sweet apple pulp, sugars, light booze, apple pie. Taste comprises sweet apples, sugars, hint of pear, tannins. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, light drying close. Decent for the high boost and comes in way below 8.4% ... surprised it scores so lowly ... like a high end tramp cider in essence.
