30/11 0.75 l bottle from some supermarket in Oviedo, where I picked up most expensive one and by far cheapest one (and that’s this, 0,87€). So, it poured pale yellow body with medium sized head. A bit stinky, sulphide and acidic aroma, some apples. Flavor was sweet, but not much, apple juice in thin body and too much carbonation. Eggy towards the finish again, which was also a bit sour vinous. Not really good, but, hey, for that price it’s better than it could be, after all, better than many European macro ciders.

Bottle @ NK Saluhall. Pale yellow colour, a lot like a watered down lager. Small white head. Aroma of bad white wine. A bit sour. Flavour is dry white wine with some sweetness to it. Not bad as a 6-pack a hot sunny day down at the Mediterranean.

In bottles at Indaba, Edinburgh. Pours golden with steady bubbles and no head (of course). The nose is of sour apples. The apples on the taste are not sour but definitely very dry. The palate is medium bodied with a tangy texture and a long dry finish. Overall, if the carbonation was slightly less, this might be very good.
