Cask handpull at the Cock Tavern. It pours clear bright golden. The aroma is earthy, musty, funk, barnyard, hay, old dirty apples, apple skin, leather and damp wood. The taste is bone dry, tannin, apple skin, hint of sweetness, earthy, leather, wood, white grape skin, hint of gooseberry and barnyard with a drying finish. Medium body, flat and slightly oily mouth - feel.nit a huge amount of depth, but it is a decent farmhouse dry.

Clear pale blond cider, no head. Aroma: lots and lots of sweet apple juice, lovely smell, more concentrated apple juice, nice! MF: soft to no carbon, medium to light body. Taste: not sweet, bit nasty, unpleasant bitterness, very dry and weird. Aftertaste: dirty, weird, grassy, muddy, meh.

500ml bottle. Dorata chiara, vivissima, limpida, leggerissimo velo di schiuma. Al naso abbastanza monocorde, sentori di succo di pera, lieve citrico, leggerissimo acetico. In bocca è dolce all'attacco con finale appena acidulo. Corpo esile, carbonazione media. Si beve.
