Hand pull at Little Owl near NEC, Birmingham. Clear pale straw colour, no head. Mellow pulp like apple cider but still has a leather and woody note to it. Slick Medium bodied, still. Good.

Bottle from Melbicks Garden Centre, Coleshill. I didn't realise it was Westons. Its made for Alex James but not clear from the bottle who bloody made it. Like a secret valentine...*sick emoji*. Pretty decent cider though. Somewhat sessionable in character although borderline at 5.5%. You want to avoid Scrumpy Jack territory in my experience! Look: clear gold, some brief fizz, standard. Aroma: classic Westons but decent wood and apple skin come through. Taste: sweet and tangy apple juice and core, bittersweet notes, medium dry Palate: light to medium bodied, light oily, a touch drying.

1 litre bottle (from keg). Look - slightly cloudy dark gold. Nose - tart apples, cinnamon, cloves, citrus. Taste - very sweet, medium tart apples, spice comes through but doesn't overpower the apples. Nice zesty citrus peel at the end. Palate - light to oily but quite smooth. Decent.

330ml can. Clear gold, brief white bubbly head, quite a lot of carbonation. Aroma is a little subdued but has sweet apples with slight funk. Taste is sweet and tart apples with a slight dry bitter tanginess in the finish. Oily body and high carbonation. Not sold on this one, but its fine.

500ml bottle. Clear dark gold, small fizzy white head. Aroma of apple, caramel, a touch of moonshine. Taste has a watery yet tangy apple, caramel. Moderate body, oily mouthfeel. Quite nice, a little basic.

Bottle, 2022, clear quite pale yellow colour, apple, apple strudel spiciness and a bit of leather, sweet but not too heavy. Nice to drink.

Had it as Waitrose English Vintage Cider (2022). Clear golden pour with a tiny white head. Aromas of tart apple, wood/oak, some cinnamon. Taste is quite similar. Well-rounded with a slightly boozy finish, but in a good way.
