Bottle from Scrattings this one at 5.9%. Clear gold, some spotted foam on top. Nose of apple core, then fruity apple juice, wood, light leather and musk. Taste is more mellow than expected with a nice fruity musky dry apple dominating. On the one hand the character/differing flavour notes are less than expected, but on the other, there is a great sessionability to it without lowering itself to supermarket blandness. Near medium bodied, nice sparkle to it, not overdone. I like it.

75cl bottle from The Original Cheddar Cheese Company shop, Cheddar. Drunk at our lodge in Cheddar. Pours a deep golden orange, lightly misty. Aroma of stewed apple. Gentle caramelised notes to taste with a light, lingering comforting woody warmth on the finish. Fine sparkle. Lovely brown snout showcase.

On tap from the brewer's own stall at the Chippenham Food and Drink Festival. Pinky-orange, light fizz. Tastes of weak Ribena. It's a little watery. Some dryness shows through from the cider. It's all just a bit half-hearted and limp. Meh, does nothing for me.
