On tap at CASK London, pours a neon orange with a faint ring of white head. You could mistake this easily for orange soda. Nose is nice though, plenty of apples, honey, some sweet soda pop, some popsicle. The flavor makes you think sweet, but it's balanced, there are candy and popsicle notes, but the tart apple acid is there. Finishes lightly acid with a lick of sweetness. Not sure I could drink 10 of these, but one half pint was tasty.

Cask@Market Porter - golden pour with white head. Very sweet Apple fruity and picking up the rum and raisin accents in this, gives a boozy warming edge into the close. Interesting but couldn't drink more than a half of this.

Box @ Barum Top Inn, Halifax. Clear golden and the rum hits you immediately, although fruit elements are found behind this - the former remains dominant though, especially in its nose.

Box @ Wheatsheaf Beer Festival, Shrewsbury. Pours very pale. Aroma of sweet rekordelig cider. Taste has an initial perry-like sweetness, giving way to a strange umami savoury chili finish. A bit odd this.

Draught at Bishops Mill Durham, JDW cider fest 2017. Golden colour, no head and mellow vinegary apple aroma. Taste is sweet, apple, rum and raisin, with some caramel, plastic and slight biscuit note. Syrupy mouthfeel, medium bodied, low carbonation, sweet finish. OK, very sweet.

Box @ JDW Shrewsbury Hotel. Pours clear gold with a strong boozy rum-like liqueur and cassonade aroma. Taste presents an overpowering rum and raisin sweetness that’s a little cloying. Really struggled past a single sip with this one.

Bag in a box at Firkin Alehouse Folkestone. Bright gold colour no head. Mango fruit aroma. Its a bit sweet. Not much apple character. Some dryness on the finish. Bit too much mango juice for me. Not great .
