Bottle online from Blas ar Fwyd, North Wales. Pours unclear gold with dissipating clear bubbles. Aroma: sweet-ish, apple, mild rhubarb, bit cheesy, musty funk. Taste: moderate to heavy sweet, mild tartness, apple, rhubarb, pineapple, vanilla streak. Medium body with fizzy carbonation. Mildly dry close. Somewhat odd, definitely an interesting flavour journey. But too sweet overall, for me.

500ml bottle from Spar, Llanwrst. Pours a deep pinkish purple. Aroma of mixed berry syrup. Flavour profile seems a bit artificial, syrupy mixed berries, cordial concentrate. Medium bodied. Not really for me.

500ml bottle from Purple Moose, Betwys Y Coed. Pours clear pale gold. Gently sweet passionfruit coming through on the nose alongside gently sweet apple fruit. A good clarity of passionfruit and lime comes through to taste, blending nicely together alongside sweet apple fruit underneath. Clean, light, easy-drinking.

500ml bottle from Purple Moose, Betws Y Coed. Pours a misty yellow, aroma of wild funk, rhubarb. Taste seems to present sweet pineapple juice alongside mild rhubarb. Certainly less rhubarb than I expected, but nicely fruity with some nice natural cider notes and gentle woody moments. Light sour funk air. Soft fuzzy carbonation. Decent.
