330ml bottle from Ales and Lagers, Publika, Kuala Lumpur. The aroma is big super sweet sugary apple crumble. The flavour is strong sweet, with a crisp, light tart apple, sweet biscuit, light acidic palate. Medium bodied with lively carbonation. Drinkable when cold but really super sweet.

Bottle thanks to Martin! Pours clear greenish yellow. Notes of lightly stale hops, some dank hoppy notes, citrus, mandarin, apples. I like the addition of hops, but maybe some less "special" hops should've been used to play with the apples a bit more.

Bottle. A- Cinnamon, apple crisp, mild mint. A- Gold color, clear liquid, no head. T- Apple crisp, cinnamon, vanilla, mint leaves. P- Light body, average texture, average carbonation, complex finish. O- I'll be damned. This is a cider I could drink gallons of. My wife fell in love with this. Literally tasted like liquid apple crisp. Outstanding stuff and not overly sweet either. Great.

Tap at the Castle in Berlin. Nose is cherry, woody apple, some vanilla. Palate is dry apple, cherry, some wood. Decent, a bit too dry.

On tap at Schilling Cider House - PDX, pours a clear pale blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings out lots of hay, barnyard funk, and crisp apple skins. Flavour is along the same lines, with crisp apple skins, barnyard funk, and mustiness. Crisp, bone dry and funky. Really good.

Clear golden. Aroma is cinnamon, caramellized almonds, apple, apple strudel. Very nice. Taste is sour apple, sweet apple, distinct flavour of cinnamon flying above. One of the nicest. Fresh and soothing.
