500ml bottle: BB 29th November 2024. Drank at home on a wet and windy 19th September 2023, the first drink of a mini-tasting with myself. No head, cloudy lemonade look. Tastes like lemonade too, it's fizzy as well. Needed some salted peanuts to help be finish the bottle.

500ml bottle: BB 31st May 2025. Poured into an old vase shaped pint glass at home on 18th September 2023. Wife's away so having a random tasting with myself and Bertie (the dog). It's red and very, very sweet cherry flavoured. Bloody hell, this is hard work. If you close your eyes it's possible to taste a Cherry Bakewell and if there was one in the house I'd go and get it to compare. Great word 'Frangipane'!
