Light apple aroma. Fizzy and yellow with no head. Dont know much about cider, but it tastes a bit like cheap chapagne.

Pint@weterspoon, Aberdeen. Thought I ordered a beer (as the menu said Beer&Burger) so I needed a few sips to readjust... Clear, pale golden color withe little white head. Aroma and taste of apple and citrus. Refreshing. Aftertaste with lime that lasts.

Great logo, really got my attention and beckoned me to drink it. Carbonated, alcohol cider, however tastes like apple Wine, and this is Rate Your Beer.

Strongbow is everything it claims to be. It’s a dry cider that with a fruity aroma. Draft is definitely better than can or bottle but still a go to drink for the fall. It’s got a sharp taste but you can get past the chemically taste to enjoy this common cider.

Miksu (3887) - Jyväskylä, FINLAND - JUN 21, 2010
0.275 l bottle from Alko. Pale golden color. Tart dull apple aroma with sulfur. Tart apple flavor with notes of pineapple. Liight bodied and dry. Simple cider with underwhelming aroma.

Muggus69 (854) - Newcastle, NSW, AUSTRALIA - JUN 16, 2010
Draught. Orange straw body. Clean, crisp, dry without being too offputting or chalky. Nice apple and hint of pear flavour. Not terrible.

40 cl draft. Pale yellow with very small white head. Flavour is apples, sweet, little dry and sour.

ClubGonzo (1732) - Bergen, NORWAY - JUN 6, 2010
Pours a bubbly, pale golden body with a thin, fizzy white top. Fairly well carbonated, though not over the top. Smell is yeasty apples, although very mild. Taste is apple juice, farmhouse yeast and grapes. Dry texture and taste; both sugar and alcohol goes completely unnoticed in this one. A very nicely blended cider, and extremely drinkable due to its low sweetness. I might not be a cider expert (this is my second rating) but I rather like Strongbow. On a hot summer day (such as this one, the time of rating) it simply "does the trick". :-)
