Bottle shared in a Bristol hotel room. Many thanks to Dan stag. Pours clear copper-caramel. Great aroma, tons of ripe and dank apples, caramel. Big sweet flavour, tons of ripe and gooey apples, some toffee, toasted sugar, apple sauce. Full bodied, oily and chewy, with fine carbonation. Warming finish, sticky and gooey, loads more ripe and gooey apples. Great fun. Dense.

Corked 375ml bottle from Astor Wines. 20% off coupons ftw! Ommegang anniversary glass. Pours a clear, bright, pale whiskey color, with a sizzling head. Smell is briney & mushroom-y. Light barnyard with a bitter, husky, wild apple scent. Very tasty. Thick skinned, bittersweet, minerally apples. Faint tartness moves into a mellow barnyard funk, ending with a yeasty, wanting cotton mouth finish. Excellent.

Draught at Euston Tap, East Lodge. It pours hazy yellow - gold with no head. The aroma is sweet, juicy, apple skin, apple pie, earth, wood and a touch of barnyard. The taste is soft, sweet, apple pie, ripe apple, tannin, woody, black tea, earthy, wood and leather with a drying finish. Medium body and flat. A bit too sweet for my liking. Overall it's ok.

On tap at Anxo DC, pours a clear gold, a ring of white head. Nose has apples, some sweet pear juice too, perhaps a little green grape. Flavor is straight forward with apples and apple juice, some yeast notes here, a touch of lemon. Finishes dry. Good pub cider.

Bag in Box at Merton Beer Festival, Oxon, Saturday 25th February This seemed to be the most popular of the ciders, even putting the might Gwatkin in the shade so I felt compelled to try it. Clear as a bell, warm gold, really good clean tangy apple, offering just the right level of tanginess. It was very good . A6 A5 T7 P4 Ov14 3.6
