500ml bottle at the January DC Ratebeer tasting. Poured a kind of dark, very clear apple juice color. Totally still. Aroma was a blast dry, sweet, boozy apple skins. Smooth apple notes. Some brandy. Apple skin. Smooth, hot, but pleasant as it's consumed. Really nice, smooth character.

Pour from 750ml bottle (thx, Alex). Pours a clear dark golden with no head. Aroma is sweet, apples, some wood notes. Taste is similar, moderately dry and... bitter. Ok.

Bottle. Pours clear shiny amber. Aroma is dried apple rings, pear, honey. Body is heavy, strongly sweet but counterbalanced incredibly well by a nice acidity. Flat, oily, pure nectar. Long sweet apple palate. Incredibly balanced and drinkable, super strong and intense flavours. An outstanding beverage!

Bottle split at RB Best Encomium share, Santa Rosa, 30/01/16 - Many Thanks ! Rich amber with a decent off white covering of bubbles. Nose is sweet apple pulp, vanilla, candied sweets, fresh and sharp. Taste comprises sweet apples, orchard wood chill, light vanilla ice cream. Full bodied, light prickle, oily, sweet. Decent but a touch too sweet for my liking.
