Draught at Khyber: dark brown with beige head. Veritable floral and honey notes. Some booze in the nose along with the heavy maltiness. Taste is kind of sweet. Low bitterness. Hefty honey notes. Pretty nice.

BBT 12/2025. Med-light sweetness, not dry. Apple complexity is higher than in commercial ciders, yet lower than I expected. Natural, but lacking the true cider varieties, feels more dessert apple like.
