Bag-in-Box. Hazy deep golden colour with no head. Aroma is green apple skins, some mild acidicness, wood and also sweet ripe apples to it. Flavour is very similar, but also has a slight touch of alcohol sweetness to it. Sweetish and somewhat dry palate as well.

Cask at the white lady. Pours hazy gold, no head. Aromas of overripe apple, farmyard. Taste is strangely sweet, for all that funky-ness. Too flat as well, for me. Mouth-coating tannins in the finish.

@ Cider Barge, Bristol. Pretty cloudy, light appley, sweet start and getting tarter towards the finish. A splash of pedio as well. Slight complexity, good cider.

Cask @ Manchester Beer & Cider Festival Jan 14. One of the ciders of the festival for me and the missus. Fruity and rich with plenty of tannins and a soft sweet finish. Very nice.
