Bottle sample courtesy of Grumbo, cheers Graham! Pink colour, short-lived bubbly white foam head and sweet grapefruit citrusy aroma. Taste is sweet sugary, juicy, mellow apple flavour, with grapefruity citrus notes, and some tartness. Syrupy mouthfeel, medium bodied, low to medium carbonation, sweet finish with lingering grapefruit. OK.

1/3/2020. Bottle from Edeka supermarket, Munich. Pours very pale pink with a bubbly white head. Aroma of pink grapefruit and sweet apple juice. Medium to heavy sweetness and light tartness. Moderate body and sticky texture. Sweet finish. Not great, but for me the best of the APPS.

27/2/2020. Bottle at Edeka supermarket, Munich airport. From the bottle. Aroma of pear drop sweets, caramel, brown sugar and sweet stewed apples and pears. Heavy sweetness, just a slight tart edge. Oily texture, above average carbonation. Sweet and artificial.

Sour grapefruit, fruity smooth with a fruity dry sour lemonade finish. Not too sweetish, refreshing & fruity.

Sample, thanks to Grumbo! Pours clear gold. Aroma has familiar overly sweet artificial sugary apple laces. Taste is much of the same. Artificially sweet rubbish.

Sample, thanks Grumbo for this! Pours clear gold. Strong aroma of lemon, indistinct tropical washing up liquid, mixed citrus squash. Taste brings a mutated blend of all of these, some added pineapple, markedly sweet, artificial. Odd.

Saple courtesy of Grumbo, cheers Graham! Golden colour, short-lived fizzy white foam head and aroma of tropical squash, lemon-lime, medicine. Taste is sweet, lemon-lime, lifesavers, coconut hints plus some astringency. Syrupy mouthfeel, medium bodied, low carbonation, astringent finish. A clash of flavours, not the best.
