330ml bottle from the National Brewery Centre, Burton. Pours clear deep gold, good medium fruit on the nose. Taste presents a nice medium fruit character, some underlying soft tannin with fleshy moments.. keeved perhaps? Not sure. It's clean, balanced and an enjoyable fruity medium overall.

500ml bottle from Cideronline. Orangey gold colour, short-lived fizzy white foam head and aroma of mellow apple with a nail varnish hint. Taste is juicy apple, bittersweet, some apple core, with vanilla, caramel notes and light woody tannins. Medium bodied, spritzy carbonation, dry tangy tannic finish. Quite drinkable

Has an aroma of muddy apples and dirt and wet branches. Modest foam is on top of a golden carbonated body. Flavour is modest apple and some sourness. Medium on the mouth with a bit of crispness. Rather average.

Gift from the sister-in-law. Sweet and sour apple aroma. Dark urine yellow. White head around rim of glass. Initially some short-lived sweetness. Then medium sour - a touch of vinegar to it. Light bodied. A tad oily. No carbonation. Dry finish. Too vinegary and dry for me.
