Bottle at home. Chilled to perfection. Pours clear gold and quite bubbly, little head which vanishes almost immediately. Delicious apple flavour with a dry finish. Very easy to drink and not too alcoholic. Yum!

clear yellow, almost no head. dry apple aroma, some pear too. flavor is dry apple, faint pear, faint citrussy tinge, dry and refreshing cider, but a bit "industrial" also ends in a strangely bitter way.
