Reddish yellow pour with a tiny white head. The berry aroma and taste is somewhat overpowering and artificial, only hints of apple. Not mindblowing, tbh.

The final ever episode of the updated Alfred Hitchcock presents... was a homage called South By Southeast. That's quite sweet and this East named version is too, with plenty of apple in aroma and taste, with a moreish flavour and easy-drinking texture. Pale yellow appearance.

Can shared at work. Deep ruby pour, pink head. Too sweet, syrupy and artificial, not at all refreshing. Nah.

Can shared at work. I know close to nothing about ciders so dunno. This one seemed pretty decent to me tho, showing moderately sweet, somewhat tart and slightly dry notes of apples. Light body, average carbonation, easy to drink.

Lattina. Il gusto al naso è indirizzato verso la mela. L'olfatto viene stimolato in maniera normale e l'esistenza olfattiva è sufficiente. Il cappello di schiuma è destinato a vita breve. La grandezza delle bollicine è medio-fine. Il liquido è di consistenza limpida. Bollicine medio-fini costituiscono anche la forma della frizzantezza. Il colore è giallo dorato carico. Il corpo è medio. L'amaro è percettibile e c'è anche una componente leggermente acidula. La forza gustativa è normale e permane in maniera sufficiente. Le sensazioni boccali finali risultano di facile beva, non ha un retrogusto particolare. Al gusto vengono donati toni di miele, agrumi e mela verde.
