Gardenia nose. Rose petals. Fragment bouquet. Dry woody oak taste. Lots of balance. Does not drink like 11%. Can smash the granny out of this.

Bottle shared at home. Clear golden with no head. Sweet apple and dry woody, fruity, grassy. Boozy and fruity up front and bone dry in the finish. Medium body and soft carbonation. Interesting to dry but a bit strong and dry for long drinking.

29 December 2019. At Dok Brewing Company. Shared with Anke! Pours clear yellow with a thinning, white head. Aroma of yellow & green apple, lemon zest, wheat, white grape, straw, faint urinal. Taste is light fruity sweet, apple & grape, quickly turning medium wheaty sour, funky, lemony, note of straw; medium fruity bitterness builds up, bitter grape mixed with apple peel, wood & oak, hay. Dry, tart finish, somewhat woody, lingering lemon peel, apple, mouth-puckering almost, some warming white wine alcohol. Medium body, oily texture, fizzy carbonation. Not really my style, I'd say it's an acquired taste as well.

75cl bottle (2013). Pours gold with a light mist, thin bubbly coating that recedes. Light fresh apple aroma. Taste is fairly light and drying with little of the 11% alcohol evident. Some light apple fruit present, but lacks an expected complexity. I expect this is partly due to the age, being 5 years old, so I'll try to find a fresh bottle to re-rate. Still, a pleasant gentle cider with faint tang on the finish.
