(Can) Pours cloudy amber with no head. Pleasant aroma of apples, with hints of orange and ginger. Full body with lovely fine carbonation. Excellent full rich flavour, again primarily apples. There’s a good balance of citrus tartness and very ripe apple sweetness. There’s some orange notes and earthy hints and medicinal herb hints. The alcohol is not apparent. Very nice.

330ml bottle, bought from Pilango, 2 years out of date. Pours clear gold. Aroma of syrupy stewed apple fruit. Taste is sweet, slightly perfumed and floral, syrupy sweet, some caramel, some lime. But given the best before I'm not sure it tastes as it should. Doesn't taste bad, just very colourful.

330ml bottle from Pilango online. Pours clear gold, small white ring atop that persists. Aroma is a touch syrupy, pear concentrate. Taste is similarly syrupy, sweet perry pear fruit, generally clean with no woody perry notes. Fine, if a little sweet.

330ml bottle from Ales and Lagers, Kuala Lumpur. Poured a clear golden colour with lots of bubbles. The aroma is fresh green apples. The flavour is moderate to strong sweet with a light, crisp, light tart apple palate. Medium medium bodied with lively carbonation. Served cool and it certainly hit the mark on a hot day in Malaysia.
