Bottle. Hazy yellow color with white head. Aroma is cinnamon, chai spice, warming Bratapfel, some grassy hops. Taste is Bratapfel, chai spice, rather dry finish. Medium carbonation. Very nice!

Bottle. Slightly hazy golden color with white head that goes down quickly. Aroma is juicy hops, tropical fruits, blueberries, fermenting apples, some oak, vanilla, earthy. Taste is lots of Mosaic hops, touch of oak and vanilla, overrupe apples. Fizzy carbonation. Interesting!

Flaska från SB. Pigg och fräsch med toner av äpple, äppelmust, röda äppelskal, citrus och humle. Torr och uppfriskande.

Bottle. Slightly hazy pale yellow-ish color with white head. Aroma is ginger, quite ethereal, some apple funk as well. Taste is spicy ginger, mealy apple skin, earthy funk, only a bit of honey if you know it, but the hops are too overloaded by the ginger for me. Fizzy carbonation. Nice and refreshing nonetheless!

Bottled at SBWF. Hazy golden. Aroma of grapefruit and pears. Mid sweet with medium body and clean mouthfeel. Winegums and pears. Mid bitter finish. Simplistic.

Bottle from Gulating, Brennåsen. Slightly cloudy pale golden body with a short lived white head. Aroma is basically fresh apples and American fruity hops. Flavor is medium sweet to dry apples and fruity hops. The apple flavor itself is pretty clean, no sign for cellar notes, wood or sulfide, the same goes for the hops – fruity aroma and no particular bitterness. Medium body and average aftertaste. Quite refreshing, nothing is wrong, pure apple with citric fruity hops. On the other hand I seem to miss out some more complexity from the apple flavor, don’t know if this is hidden behind the hops or not. Maybe even adding hops to cider isn't such a great idea at all? Anyway, interesting enough to make me ant to try something more basic from this cider maker or at least one without hops.
