On cask at The Rat & Ratchet, pours a clear golden with a tiny head. Aroma brings out gentle barnyard funk, hay, and crisp apple skins. Flavour is fairly dry, with dry hay, farmhouse notes and crisp apple skins. Finishes lightly sweet, with hay and light farmhouse notes. Pleasant.

750ml glass screw top from Tesco. It pours clear yellow - gold with a quickly dissipating white head. The aroma is sweet, fairly sugary, sticky, apple juice from concentrate, crunchy apple, dried apple, touch of honeyed grain and a touch of bubblegum. The taste is slick, oily, sweet, sugary, crunchy apple, smart price apple juice, hint of acidity, apple skin, light oak tannin and dull alcohol with a slick, sweet finish. Medium body, light carbonation and slick mouth feel. A bit too sweet and one dimensional. Hides the abv well though. Fair.
