750ml @ SF shared with almost full gang (missing two biggest guys only).
Aroma: apple pie, some apples seeds, a bit artificial and grainy.
Taste: along the same lines.
Overall: meh.

750mL bottle, pours a clear pale golden blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings out rooibos, gentle honey, crisp apple skins, and a touch of cinnamon. Flavour has plenty of spiced apple, cinnamon, rooibos tea, with low-to-moderate sugars on the finish. Not much complexity, but at least it’s not sweet. Integrated; pleasant.

Bright gold. Has a spicy apple note, lots of cinnamon. Good apple, fairly sweet, cinnamon, with a bit of ginger. I don't get a ton of rooibos. It's decent, but eating apples seem to be a thing here. Lacks complexity and dryness.

On tap at Threefold. Pours clear blonde with a white head. Lots of grassy rooibus, gentle spice, earthy honey, and apple skins on the nose. Flavour has apple cores, plenty of rooibus, herbal, some residual honey-like sweetness. It's okay. I don't love the apple expression and the rooibus is very present, but overall not terrible.
As it warms it smells like a Fisher Price toy. Lovely.

750ml (thx, Ryan!) @ SF
Aroma: some sweetness apples, a bit of apple seeds and tannins.
Taste: along the same lines, quite dry, tannic, but not much complexity.
Overall: ok.

750mL bottle, pours a clear golden with a small white head. Aroma has gentle funk, with crisp apple and pear skins, and light sugars. Flavour is crisp and dry, with mineraly notes, crisp apple skins, and a hint of funk. Nothing particularly complex but it’s clean.

Poured from 750mL bottle (from Banditry Cidery). Clear rose gold with very minimal white head. Pear and apple skins, feint quince, dry-ish, okay.

Slight pinkish, smells appley. Not sure I specifically get quince, but not sure I would. Tart, has some acidity, an off-dry finish. Not super complex, okay apple notes, and again it's not that clear about the quince, but I'm not sure it ever is.
