Bottle from Beers of Europe @ 8.4%, certainly a strong one! Murky orange-gold, still, no head. Aroma of leather, sweet apple juice, apple skins. Taste is sweet light-musky apple juice, wood, some sourness, medium dry finish with alcohol warmth on the way down. Slick body, goes down nicely. Quite fruity and warming although lacks some depth. I was half tempted to warm it up as it has a good base for a mulled cider, just need to add your own spices!

500ml bottle shared with Bjørg. Bought at Gulating Ølutsalg in Tromsø earlier this year. No head, poor lacing, orange-brownish body next-to-clear. Subdued smell of mid-sweet berry-fruits. Sweet and mid-dry taste of raspberries, a citric note to it. Ends sweet. Soft drink impression. About drinkable. (Tromsø, 14.12.2024).

22/11/2024. BIAB at The Dove Street Inn Winter Beer Festival, Ipswich. Pours hazy/cloudy orange amber with a small bubbly white head. Aroma is sweet apples, sugars, baked apple, caramel, slight funky edge. Medium to heavy sweetness, slight tartness. Moderate body, light carbonation. Quite liked it as Lilley's go.

Clear bottle 50 cl. Pours almost crystal clear with only a vague tint of green. Subtle but fairly clean apple notes, I don't really sense any elderflower. Medium body, sweet apple notes and only a faint note of the elderflower. Absolutely no tartness. It's sweet but not cloying as other Lilley ciders. 161024

Clear bottle 50 cl. Pours a clear red with a small, rough, off-white head. Intense - artificial - cherry sauce and marzipan aroma. Medium body, cloyingly sweet cherry notes with absolutely no tartness. About as far from decent Cider as you can possibly come. Sticky, sugary shit. 071024

Clear glass bottle 50 cl. Pours almost crystal clear with only a faint, greenish tint. Discreet apple aroma. Medium body, very sweet and sugary with only discreet notes of apples and pears. Way too commercialized Cider for people who do not like Cider. 230924
