Bottle. It’s a llightly hazy golden beer with some white bubbles on top. Lightly funky, in a good way, with apples and apple cores. Too much yeast. It’s medium to full-bodied, dry and with a nice carbonation. Some yeast in the flavor too, it’s lightly tart, with apples, some grass and a funky hint. All lasting for a while. Too yeasty this one, but sure decent. 160504

500 ml bottle, as Balholm Handverk Cider Økologisk, from Vinmonopolet Kvadrat. ABV is 6%. Golden colour, pours very sparkling with the largest white head I’ve seen in any cider - and it takes quite a while to disappear completely. Aroma of cider apples, perfume, sulphur and smelly socks. Dry flavour, light bodied for a 6% cider, but fairly crisp and refreshing. Not a cider I’ll spend money on again, though.
