750 ml dark bottle, from Helgø MENY, Hundvåg. ABV is 4.7%. Slightly hazy golden colour, pours sparkling with a moderate to small white head. Aroma of oxidised apples, elderflowers and herbal hops. The flavour is slightly on the dry side, with the same elements as the aroma, but overall with a somewhat "unfresh" character.

0,5 flaske fra Sola taxfree, delt med Kitty: gylden med bruseskum. Behagelig eplearoma og -smak, lett perlende og passe søt. En smule vandig, men med ok ettersmak.

0,5 flaske (Balholm Eplebrygg) fra Sola taxfree, delt med Kitty på 17.mai: lett uklar dyp gylden med forbilledlig skum helt ned - ser ut som øl. Frisk og god eplesmak i kombinasjon med og fin munnfylde fra malten. Diskret humlet og fint karbonert. Kittys nye favoritt.

Bottle, 75cl. A quite hazy orange colored cider with some carbonation and a rim of bubbles. Quite sweetish apple aroma, think apple jam or baked apple, along with a gentle tropical, orangey hoppyness. Pineapple, peach, grass, a touch of orange and a very light herbal note. It's medium bodied and a little bit dead on the palate, a bit more carbonation would've done good with the fruity sweetness. Apple driven flavor too, sweet, but with a bit more hoppyness than on the nose. Quite shortlived finish. Wonder if they made it sweet to stand up against hoppy bitterness, but didn't know that dryhopping don't give you much bitterness. Anyway, it's a quite tasteful cider, but it's too sweet and flat for me. 230412

Bottle, 75cl. It's lightly cloudy in the glass, golden-orange in color, and mostly still and headless. Some bubbles float to the top and stay for a little while though. It's quite pleasant on the nose, apple driven, with some grass, earthy hints and sour fruit. It's medium bodied and quite dry on the palate, far from bone dry though, and with a pleasant tickling on the tongue. Tannins and acidity, with a flavor dominated by fresh apple juice. Grass, bark, wood and earth notes too. Apple cores. Long finish. A very pleasant cider at a rather low ABV. 230331
