Boks fra Gulating Stavanger, delt med Ovesen under mesking av ny esb: klar gylden med ok skum. Kompleks og lekker aroma og smak - her dufter og smaker det som en hel eplehøst. Rund og deilig, særdeles lett å drikke samtidig som jeg nyter hver slurk. Men glasset blir allikevel fort tomt...

330 ml bottle. Almost clear golden body with a moderate white head that fades quickly. High carbonation with tiny champagne style bobbles. Aroma is apple with some cellar notes. Flavor is distinct apples, both sweet and slightly acidic. Medium body and decent aftertaste with the same sweet and dry profile. A decent and quite straight forward refreshing cider. The apple flavor is nice, but still a bit too much on the sweeter side for my likings and the complexity is not the same as most other quality Bretagne ciders. A nice and likable real cider that anyone could enjoy no matter preferences.

330 ml stubby bottle, from Helgø MENY Sola. ABV is 4.0%. Golden colour, pours sparkling with a shortlived white head. Pleasant aroma of cider apples and sweet dessert apples, hints of oak and sulphites. Medium sweet flavour, dessert apples more than cider apples. Hints of oak and sulphites in the finish.
