Bottled. Deep golden colour, no head. Aroma is sweet apples, green apple skins and some mild sugary notes. Flavour has some sweet sugary notes with mild tart apples and some wooden notes. Very easy going and quite watery.

Bottled. Yellowish golden colour, minor head, which disappears rather fast. Flavour is green apple skins, some herbs, mild wood and some slight toffee notes. Flavour is rather similar but quite thin as for a body.

--Bottled, from Alliance, St.Helier. -- Clear pale golden, small head. Concentrated aroma of Granny Smith. Mildly tart with light to medium body rounded mouthfeel. Mildly tart green apples, distinct apple skin bitterness. Straightforward but pleasant.
