Box @ Stable Cider Awards 2018, Birmingham. Wild funk aroma, pouring a generally clear yellow. Has a nice soft tannic presence on the tongue, with plenty of fleshy fruit and a pleasant natural sparkle. Good stuff.

From a large glass flaggon at home, acquired from Aune Valley farm shop, 02/05/18. Deep golden with a fast collapsing head of bubbles. Nose is toffee apple, straw, lightest of farmy funk notes, sweet stewed apples. Taste comprises sweet apple pulp, caramel, straw, hay bale, light bitter edge. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close. Decent enough cider if a touch sweet.

BIAB up the White Lady. Pours still golden. Aromas of apple, little else. Taste has more going on, tannins and light acidity, more sweet apple. Drinks like apple juice though.

BIAB at Tanners Hall Darlington JDW Fest 2018. Golden colour, no head and rubbery apple aroma. Taste is sweet, juicy apple, with some leathery funk, woody oak, horseblanket and earthy tannin. Oily mouthfeel, medium bodied, low carbonation, medium sweet tart finish. Quite drinkable.

Bag in a box at Muggleton Inn JDW Maidstone. Clear gold colour no head. Apple juice and tannin aroma. Yes good apple tannin in the mouth. Reminds me of the scrumpy my Dad would buy on holiday in the West Country. Dry finish. Good tannin and apple flavour character.

Draft at the Royal Navy - Bristol. Pours totally clear yellow. The nose holds funky and sweet apples. Medium sweet flavour with a little salty bite, bitter peel, musty hay bales. Medium bodied, a little chewy, soft. Finishes with some musty dryness, ripening apples, bitter peel. Not bad overall.
