Easter Sunday 2021, 4th April; mega session at home. Clear 330ml bottle from LowCostBeer: BBE Jul 2020, so well out of date. Shared with my son in the bright afternoon sun sat on our patio. It's an apple smelling and tasting drink, actually liked it!

330ml bottle – Pours a clear gold colour with a small white head that quickly disappeared. The aroma is rhubarb and tart apples. A sweet taste, stewed rhubarb and apple flavours with some additional sweet apple juice with a light sweet and tart dryness in the finish. It’s not too sweet and the rhubarb works well but one for those who like a sweeter cider.

Keg @ Stable, Birmingham. Pours a light misty yellow, small ring of white bubbles atop, sparkling. Vibrant rhubarb on the nose. Taste presents a strong rhubarb presence, good underlying apple content, not overly sweet relying largely on the natural apple fruit. Pretty good this.
