440ml can. Pale gold and fizzy. Sweet, industrial, apple pulp cider with not much of a finish. Not for me.

Cask @ The Radway Inn, Sidmouth. Slightly hazy golden coloured ale. Very dry with both its texture and flavour. There’s a small tanginess in its apple as an afterthought.

BIAB @ Shrewsbury Hotel. Pours pink. Lots of hedgerow berries with tart raspberries, lime and rhubarb. Apple juice? Maybe. Quite nice.

Sampled from a 500 ml can this beer poured a dark golden color with a small soapy white head that faded quickly and left no lacing. The aroma was sweet apple juice, a hint of green apple and pear. The flavor was dryish and tart with notes of apple peel and sulfur. Medium length finish. Light to medium body. Disappointing.

16 ounce can from Whole Foods Charlottesville. Pours a clear golden with a fizzy head that fades instantly. Aroma of strong ginger, candy apples. The taste is strong, spicy ginger, tart apples. Thin bodied. Meh.

Bottle from Saintsbury’s, Halifax. Paler golden colour. Crisp enough in the palate with a dry texture where the apple flavour lingers long. Fair aroma of the fruit.
