On tap @Luppolo Station in Rome-Italy. Funny enough this story of apples grown and picked in London. Pours clear medium golden color with a minim foam leaving a persistent lacing. Nose: sweet apple juice, apple skin. Mouth: frizzy, medium sweet, softly dry, decent cider.

Keg @ Coracle, Ironbridge. Pours clear pale pink, fresh light red berry and distant rhubarb on the nose. Crisp, refreshing, lightly fruity first impressions, light fleshy skin, gentle berry accents, distant rhubarb with a comforting effervescence. Seems to hit the crisp, light Rosé style well.

Bottle from Sainsbury's, drunk at home. Magenta, clear with some visible carbonation. Strawberry liquorice, fruit punch soda, black raspberry in the aroma. Taste is extremely sweet at first with there's a light fruity tartness in the finish. It feels more like a soda than a cider but I still quite like it.

500ml bottle from Brewdog online store. Clear pink colour, fizzy white foam head that quickly dissipates away and fruity aroma. Taste is tart, sweet, fruity, rhubarb & strawberry, some biscuit and apple notes. Thin mouthfeel, light bodied, spritzy carbonation, semi-sweet rhubarb & strawberry finish. Quite OK

Keg at Brewdog Lothian Rd, Edinburgh. Appearance - pink but fairly transparent. Thin lace. Nose - more strawberry than anything to do with rose, though you can find rose if you look for it. Taste - again more strawberry than rose, but still some rose in there, nonetheless. Palate - light bodied and tangy in texture and finish. Overall - quite enjoyed.

Keg at BD Inverutie. It pours clear pinkish / blush with a small white head. The aroma is soft, fresh, red fruits, strawberry, rhubarb, Victoria sponge cake and candy cane. The taste is crisp, dry, hint of tartness, raspberry, strawberry, rhubarb, red apple, quite clean, waxy peel and some sherbet perhaps. Lighter end of medium body and moderate, prickly carbonation. Not a whole load of apple vibes about it. Quenching to some extent. Fine.
