Draught @ Bell & Crown, Canterbury. Pours a disconcertingly pale greenish gold. Super sweet, artificially sugary, artificially flavoured, clean, sugary.. flavour profile doesn't bear much resemblance to apple. Insulting.

rose-like colour, medium sized pinkish ecru head, which disappears quite quickly; aroma and taste of blood orange and sugar syrup; drinkable, though not really good

Golden colour, small white head. Aroma is apples, some mild herbs and a bit green apple skins with some grassy tones too. A bit white wine like tones to it. Flavour is green apple skins, some dry white wine like elements, mild sweetish tart apples too.

Festival pint draft at Hebrides West End, Edinburgh, Scotland. Pours a semi-clear strawberry color with a light pink head and excellent retention. Excellent lacing too. Strong orange peel aroma. Sweet orange and berry flavor cider with a slightly dry finish. As expected, clean and smooth. Maybe a little drier than I like, but good.
