750ml bottle from Sainsburys. Clear gold in colour with plenty of carbonation. Aroma of apple blossom and toffee. Flavour began with some dryness before a sweet apple finish. Easy drinking but a bit lacking in character.

Cask Conditioned at Wenlock Arms, London
Cloudy orange color, a bit scary. The aroma is fruity and sour, with a touch of hazelnuts. The mouthfeel is a bit astringent, with some apples flavor, light sourness, but at the end I have an unpleasant feeling of sweetener. Controversial.

Cloudy deep blond color. Sweetish cider, light apples in the aroma and more in the flavor, and with a late pleaant astringency, but unfortunately a light impression of saccharin too in the final.

Cloudy blond color. It has a sourish aroma of apples. Nice apples flavor, medium sweet, with a subtle sourness; the final is a bit weaker and it has a very light astringency; balanced and easy to drink.
