Tap. Clear golden color with tiny small head. Aroma is apple custard. Taste is apple sauce, vanilla, light leathery funk, apple peel, apple mash, very dry finish. Mineraly mouthfeel, almost flat. Good one!

330 ml bottle, at The Beehive (JDW landside, South terminal, Gatwick). ABV is 4.5%. Deep golden colour. Strange aroma of dishwater and well used socks - and apples. Light bodied, slightly dry. Flavour of apples, but fairly thin. Not a cider I'd bother to buy again.

At a tasting, almost no head, clear deep red color, sweet jammy fruit drops aroma, same traits in flavor but more like real fruit, noticable sourness. simple and too much like an alcopop, but still nice.
