Cask at the Pommeler’s Rest, JDW, London. Pours a very cloudy, orange-gold with no head. WTH is this? You can barely this is cider. Almost like a golden ale. Very faint apples. Light to medium in body with soft carbonation. Dry finish, faint dried apples, light dry hay bitterness. Meh. Perhaps this is one to try again.

500 ml bottle bought @ Systembolaget and consumed on January 21. Pours clear golden with a fizzy white head that quickly dissipates without leaving much trace. Smell is sweet, slightly sour and yeasty with apples, vinegar and lemon zest. Taste is dry, slightly sweet, slightly acidic and yeasty with green and red apples, grass and some hints of vanilla. Finish is sweet with wood and apples. Carbonation is quite aggressive. Not as good as I remembered it too be.
