750ml bottle pours a hazy orange with nno head. Nose is as you’d expect, apples, apple juice, sugary, a little jolly rancher, some light brie. Flavor is the same, like drinking a plate that has green apples paired with brie, earthy. A little too sweet for my liking. I wish the finish was more dry.

Bottle thanks to Sarah. Pours a clear pale gold with no head, but has visible carbonation. Aroma has a bit of earthy funk with some cheese, but mainly sweet apples. Flavor has a bit more tart apple with a bit of sweetness and a bit of cheese.
