This was a saviour of what was a great nite. Found it for 99p a 660ml bottle in haddows arcoss the road. Now think 10 people all the change you can get out of every1 and every1 wanting as much booze as we can get for the least amount of money and think how many bottles of this we ended up with! Aroma is chemical apple. Taste is not as carbonated as expected, a bit more apple character than your usual rubbish, strongbow ect. Worth the pain of carrying all the bottles up 3 sets of stairs anyway.

Draught. Pours a clear straw color with a minimal white head. Aroma is sweet-dry with apple skin, green apple pulp, dusty basement and white wine. Taste is moderately sweet with a hint of acidic. Green applea and fruity sweetness mixed with white wine. Thin in body with lively carbonation. Overall, very decent and interesting balance.

Keg. The Stone Roses, York. Thin white head. Clear yellow gold body. Apples. Tangy, bittersweet taste. Dry finish. Okay.

UPDATED: FEB 15, 2012 Bottle from Liverpool Echo arena. Nice golden colour with a bubbly head. Very nice semi dry apple taste to this one. Easy drinkable, and smells good.

Draught at Dartmouth Arms, London. Golden color. The aroma and flavor is that of gentle sweetish apple with hint of pear. Light acidity, light tannins. Pretty standard easy cider with no highlights.

Bottle, pours bright yellow, the smell of lots of sweet apples, very nice apple taste to this one, very drinkable

Slightly watery, but a decent sharpness to the aroma. Definitely appley. Refreshing crisp palate. Leaves you with an appley finish. However, something’s missing. It’s a bit watery and gutless.

Bottle. Very clear yellow with little head. Mostly apple aroma and flavour. Smooth apple and alcoholic finish.

500 ml bottle. BBE 05/2011, vintage! [sic] Rated @ 25.6.2011.
Pours a clear golden colour without a head. Looks like apple juice. Aroma of sweet tart apples and some wood. Flavour of tart, dry, green apples, cardboard, and again wood. Light bodied with a watery mouthfeel and a surprisingly strong, acidic apples. A month after BBE and this has clearly gone quite sour.

(Bottle) Im not buying generic bottled Cider anymore , this is so far removed from the rusticity of Scrumpy . Sweet and then a woody dryness on the finish . BLLLLLAAAAAAHHHHHHH

bottle from Macro cash and carry czech rep. I ve never drunk Cider befor, so Im not a specialist to this sort of alcohol. wine aroma, citrus, white to liht colour, light sweetness, lightly bitter, lightly sour, light body, thin feel, average carbonation, good drink to hot summer I think
