Bottle from Marks & Spencer. Deep gold in colour with plenty of fizz. Aroma of apple juice with a hint of sweetener. Flavour had plenty more sweet juice before a stewed apple-like finish. Simple gluggable stuff.

Keg at BD AGM. It pours clear golden with a small white head. The aroma is fresh, bright, musty, oily, leather, old tea and dirt. The taste is dry, crisp, juicy, oily, apple, pear, tangy fun, fruit juice, black tea and tannin with a firmly dry finish. Medium body and fine carbonation. Very nice and dry. Good fun.

Bottle at Miller & Carter, Ipswich. Poured clear golden amber with a small white head. Aroma of apples and light caramel. Moderate sweetness and body. Slight watery texture, soft to flat carbonation. Ok but not worth the £4.60 price ticket.
