Scrumpy Jack

Brewed by Bulmers Cider (S&N, Heineken)
Style: Cider
Hereford, England

A dark orange cider with a huge light orange head - that collapses quite fast. The aroma is strong apply with hints of wood. The flavor is sweet combined with an acidity from the apples. It leaves a dryness on the palate, but has a very weak body. The flavor is not nealy as good as the aroma.

50 cL can. Pours clear and golden yellow with a small and fizzy white head. Distinct dry apple phenolic aroma from a distance. Mild mouldy accent. Flavour is dry and acidic, smooth apple flavour beneath and with a nice phenolic touch into the finish.

Draught @ Cove, West Cornwall Pasty Co, The Piazza, Covent Garden, Greater London England WC2E 8HB.
Clear light to medium yellow orange color with a small to average, fizzy, fair lacing, mostly diminishing, white to off-white head. Aroma is moderate apple, medicine, chemistry. Flavor is moderate sweet and light light acidic with a average duration. Body is light to medium, texture is oily, carbonation is soft. [20090803]

Bottled@O’malleys, Vaasa. Pale golden colour, no head. Aroma is papery and dry with some mild hints of apple and rubber. Flavour is at first quite dry and ok apples, but as it warms up slightly it gets very rubbery and cardboardy notes and gets quite unpleasant to drink.
