Canister@GBBF2012. Golden colour, no head. Aroma is apples, some yeast, mild cheesy and tart wooden notes along with some sweetness as well. Flavour is quite dry apples, mild tart wood and some sugary and vanillaish notes as well. Vanilla grows rather big in the aftertaste.

Cloudy tan with a little bit of blush. Tannic aroma with a bit of juice. Tannic and juicy character, a little bit of puckering acidity and tannins. Nicely balanced.

275ml bottle. Not much to look at - cloudy, medium brown with moderate carbonation. Peasant apple juice, dry without being too tart and with a hint of barnyard. Very easy drinking, with soft apple flaovurs, a touch of wood and a decent dry finish. Very good.
