375ml can into pint glass. From BWS, Glen Innes in discounted Xmas box set. Pale yellow cider with slight pink tinge, zero head, medium carbonation. Aroma of apple and watermelon but more like lollies than the real thing. Taste is tart, body is light. Harsh carbonation but still easy drinking. Alcohol not immediately noticeable but present. Not bad.

Sampled from the tap at The Taphouse. Pours a clear pale yellow with a white head that dissipates completely. Aroma has deep earthy apple but is mainly full of sweet apple. Flavor has sweet apple with a bit of funk underlying.

Pint on tap at Local Taphouse, Sydney. Pours a cloudy pale yellow with no head. Nose is sweet apples. Light and refreshing. Finish is great, umami and toffee and apple skins. Real hit of apple juice right at the end. Superior cider.

(Bottle) Pours pale yellow with no head. Gentle fruit aroma with cheesy hints. Light bodied and very fizzy. Pleasant fruity flavour with some sweetness. Easy drinking, pleasant, unexceptional.

500ml bottle into shaker. Funky, cheesy, acidic, fruity nose. Madly carbonated cloudy yellow cider with myriad floaty bits. Looks like a science experiment. Mild apple flavour, slightly acidic mouthfeel. Finish is distant sweet apple and pear. Nice, subdued dry (due to the oak?) cider.
