Papsoe (9980), Frederiksberg, Denmark Feb 22, 2008 (On tap) Clear, golden with almost no head. Somewhat astringent apple aroma. Medium-bodied with a high carbonation. Lightly tart apple notes with a lightly astringent, leathery touch. Ends lightly acidic. The most authentic in the Ballydooly range. 200208 Leopard_Man (53), New Zealand Feb 9, 2004 This bottle was actually labelled as 6.0% ABV.
Served in a 400 ml. tumbler.
Sherry!! This smells like a nice sherry and the initial taste was much the same...that nice warm sherry feel was very much in evidence. Leaves a slightly sticky feel on the tongue.
A nice clear appearance which resembles a very light orange-brown water.
A definite repeat purchase.
motelpogo (4111), Plzen, Czech Republic Jan 22, 2004 on tap in dunedin at a pub which also had a lot of emersons but i forgot the name of. this has made me interested in ciders. mineral water appearance - obviously no peel in there. starts sweet and sickly but then has some moderate rotten apple tartness. very soft texture. champagne-like with a syruppy apple aroma. we used tennis balls when i was a little tacker eczematic (1153), Sydney, Australia Jan 20, 2004 ok, i know nothing about ciders but this one did surprise me. it had a tasty taint of gueuzelike funk going on, like the juice that used to spray up onto my face when i used to hit the rotten apples off my grandparents' tree with a tennis racket onto the neighbour's rooves when i was a little tacker in adelaide. it looks exactly like sprite. mouthfeel is smooth and soft, and then champagne-yeasty at the finish.
