11.2 oz can sent for my comment. The can names this as Aval Blanc, and the description says this is mostly from sour apples, with Avrolles taking center stage. But this seems to be the same product. A light gold color when pours, some soda pop fizziness that become a light stream of bubbles. The nose is very light, but a bit of, actually, apple juice sweetness. Light cider taste, balanced with a note of pear, and a buttery mouthfeel. I can go for this as an everyday cider.

Funky apple juice. Little dry. Third and final French cider. Pic: Eric Cantona with a kung-fu kick on a Crystal Palace supporter.

Nice and refreshing. Must say, these two French ciders have surprised me in a positive manner. Well done.

Taste like sparkling white wine. Not bad at all.

Aug. 2020: 330 ml clear bottle, from Vinmonopolet Lyngdal. ABV is 6%. Golden to rosé colour, pours sparkling with a shortlived white head. Fresh aroma and flavour of various apple varieties, moderately sweet, a hint of sulphites. Nice one.

Gyllen brun med bobler og hvitt skum. Lukter eple og litt gjær. Relativt fizzy i munnfølelse, helt ok.

On tap at Capitol Cider, pours a clear pale blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings out barnyard funk, crisp apple skins, champagne-like effervescence. Flavour is fairly dry, with champagne-like effervescence, gentle funk, crisp apple skins, and a touch of residual sweetness. Not the most complex or funk French cider but it's pretty solid.

Backlog June 2018. Clear golden body under a small white head. Nice, clean apple aroma. Taste is soft, smooth apple, pretty clean flavor. Medium body and same aftertaste. Nothing special going on really, but a fine, honest apple cider with a god balance between sweetness and mild bitterness.
