Shared 330 ml cans at Mandag i Annen, Cardinal, Stavanger. "Grocery store strength" cider, made of the versatile Karin Schneider apple variety. Pleasant aroma and flavour of said apples. Some residual sweetness. Easy drinking.

330 ml bottle in excessive packaging, from Vinmonopolet Stavanger Tasta. ABV is 16%: Pitch black colour, minimal brown head of poor retention. Aroma of molasses, fusel, chocolate, coffee, oak and tokaji sweet wine. Very sweet flavour with the same elements, more distinct tokaji now, also distinct bittering hops. Not superbly balanced. Way overpriced.

Dry cider from Apal, not so different from Sølvsider, but even drier and with more apple acid. Good with food.
