Bottle, medium fizzy head, light hazy darkish oxidised orange colour, aroma of leather with a bit of apple, baked apple flavor with some leather and sulphur, light sweetness and a bit of sourness. Quite good.

Bottle at Cap Tap. Pours rather cloudy with some bubbles. Aroma of tart apple skins. Med body. Flavor is earthy apple-skin, nicely tart; quite dry. Reminds of decent farmhouse ciders.
