Bottle from Pecks Farm Shop, Leighton Buzzard. Clear, rich peachy-gold colour with a soft but plentiful fizz. Rhubarb crumble is set against a background of a surprising funky cider behind. Sweetness is well balanced by tartness and some tannic apple skin too. Nice to have a flavoured cider where you can still taste the cider - this is one of the best I've had in the genre. Nice one!

Apple and rhubarb in a nice mix Tad to sweet when it got warm. But really refreshing and tasty when at right temperature. Decent ok acidity and a fine carbonation level [Bottle from Bryne]

Sample, thanks to Grumbo! Misty amber, thin foamy ring of head. Gente spicy nose. Fuzzy soft carbonation. Cinnamon and cardamom emerge gently, quite a measured spicy presence with additional toffee apple notes. Decent.

Sample courtesy of Grumbo, cheers Graham! Golden amber colour, some white bubbles on top that dissipate away and aroma of spice, cardamon, cinnamon, apple. Taste is sweetish, apple strudel, spice, bittersweet. Medium bodied, low carbonation, dry spiced finish. Quite OK

Box @ Stable, Birmingham. Pours clear gold. Aroma presents a mellow medium apple sweetness. Taste is balanced, generally clean with a mellow apple fruit sweetness. Not a huge amount of complexity and fairly straightforward overall but accompanied my garlic bread nicely.

1/10/2019. Bottle from Towcester Mill Brewery Shop. Pours pale plumy amber with minimal head. Aroma of sweet apples and plum juice with a little brown sugar. Medium plus syrupy sweetness but balanced quite nicely with a light to moderate tartness. Moderate body, slight oily texture, average carbonation. I've found Saxby's to be hit and miss, this was one of their nicer ones.
