500ml bottle, thanks to Grumbo! Pours misty gold. Extremely light apple nose. Extremely dry, light, watery palate, gently sour, distant apple fruit, not really much going on here, distant acidity. Not great.

BIAB at Station House Cider Festival 2019. Slightly hazy yellow gold colour, white bubbly foam head that slowly dissipates away and aroma of fleshy apple. Taste is mellow, fruity apple, citric, with some biscuity cardboardy oxidised notes. Medium bodied, low carbonation, dry biscuity oxidised finish. Quite OK

500ml screwcap bottle from Beers of Europe. Pours misty golden yellow, light watery mouthfeel, aroma is light farmyard, soft freshly pressed apple pulp. Taste is light, apple orchard must, straw.. seems thinned / watered down and lacking a good fleshy body, distant tannins. Not great.

Bottle from Beers of Europe. Pours deep purple. Aroma has light blackcurrant. Taste is thin, lightly oily, uncarbonated, some pleasant blackcurrant, but expected more, nice juice, underlying apple fruit, soft tannin. Pleasant table cider, but has more of a light fruit juice feel.

Bag in a box from the Real Ale Classroom, Stoneygate, Leicester. Light yellow, cloudy. A bit of loose white head. Vinegar, Apple, lemon balm and TCP in the aroma. Not getting a lot of elderflower. Taste is surprisingly sweet, but feels artificial, and there's an almost plastic note to the fruit flavour, like wax candy. This just didn't do it for me at all.
