Scrambler from Bottle Kicking Cider

6.2/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 6 Flavor 5 Texture 8 Overall 6
Handpull at the Old Horse, Leicester. Light golden and clear with a foamy bit of white head. Vinous scent with orchard fruits and a touch of champagne vinegar. Tastes far too sweet - that wonderful cider tang is missing - and there's a saccharine note to the finish. Not keen on this but it'll do.
