Can, thx to fonefan. A clear, yellow cider with a rim of white bubbles on top. No carbonation. Earthy nose with apples and a touch of burnt rubber. The flavor is dominated by apples, both sour apples and apple cores. Dry, pleasantly carbonated mouthfeel and a bit thin. Sourish apples in the end. Not bad, but the aroma put me off a bit, at least the first minutes. Well, I wonโt miss drinking again. 101112

Can, 4%. Slightly metallic aroma. Clear dark copper colour. Small stable off-white head. The flavour is mildly caramelly with a weak hop note. Clean. Fizzy. A lot better than expected.

Can, 5.3%. Distinct white wine aroma, a little yeasty. Clear yellow colour. Very small white head. The flavour is dry, but not bone dry. Tastes a lot like fizzy white wine. Not great, but not as bad as many other macro ciders.

Pale gold with slight carbonation. Sweet, apple fruit aroma. Flavour began with the same sweetness before a lemony acidity cut in, which gave way to some residual sugar. Unusual, but not that great.

Near black, with a hint of red when held up to the light and billowy, momentary tan head. Aroma of strong black coffee, bitter chocolate and a hint of dark fruit. Flavours of liquorice, more chocolate and charred malts, leading to a very dry, burnt finish. Enjoyable.

Amber coloured with a slight, off-white head and moderate carbonation. Malty aroma with a touch red fruit and boiled sweets. Sweet, soggy bread flavour with more candy sweetness, a trace of cardboard and short, bitter finish. Another unpleasant pasteurised English beer.

500ml bottle from Sainsburyโs. Light yellow colour, white bubbles. Aroma is slightly sour apple. Flavour is sour apple, medium dry, heavy carbonation. Refreshing, but a bit simple.
