Cask at GBBF
Clear light lemonade, no head or lacing. Mild aroma of apples. Mild flavors are tart and herbal
Didn’t like this one

Sampled @ GBBF day 2. Clears very pale yellow color, no head. Weird aroma that reminds me of dishwasher water. Taste sweet, apple and pear, lightly wine-like. Hmm don’t really like it.

Plastic barrel@GBBF2011. Pale yellowish golden colour, small white head. Aroma is apples, yeast, som mild notes of wood and cheese. Flavour is apples, mild acidic notes, wood, spruce and some slight vinegary notes.

From polycask at Great British Beer Festival, day 3, on 4 August 2011. A new producer to me. Seems they are probably making cider as a sideline to their main vineyard business. Rather pale, straw colour. This is made with "eaters" so, not surprisingly, this doesn’t have the tannins or farmyard depth of a cider made with traditional cider apples. There’s a touch of acidity and a fair amount of appley fruit which, probably, is responsible for it seeming rather sweeter than it actually is, as I would have put this on the sweet side of medium. So, although it’s not the most challenging cider, what you do get is a clean, easygoing, pleasant and dangerously quaffable cider.
