750mL from toncatcher/kkearn. Pour is dirty, murky golden, all thick and messed up color. Has a small head. Aroma is very acetic, all damn aceto, its sweet burnt acid. Its a bit too much, my nose is on fire. Taste is a bit more acceptable, less overly acetic, but still strong. Plenty of green apple. Strong dry, strong vinegar, big kick at the end. At times even hard to drink. I like sour but I need more sometimes, and this just goes overboard sometimes.
