I’ve only had this once, when i was in london. This is the best apple cider in the world no doubt, gets you hammered and is better than most beer.

All I can say is WOW!! I thought Diamond was good but Lightning is even better. Sweet and refreshing, chem flavor but lacking in the rotten meat taste I love. I’ll forgive it that because the price cant be beat. I’m stocking up on it!

Cheap can cider, flavor average. Not something I would drink on a normal basis, the taste is too sharp and not sweet at all.

Probably the best of the cheap strong white cider's in Britian, but still awful!

UPDATED: SEP 19, 2006 smells absolutly foul, tastes just as bad and has a damned unpleasant metallic quality, makes it into the cider category on a technicality i think, since it does have a squirt of apple flavouring somewhere. But at £2 for 2 litres, it does posses a certain ’face-mashery’ that more expensive brews lack when you only have a tenner.

I bought this one often when I lived in Edinburgh. I know it is not something to be proud of, Scrumpy Jack is better, just didnt know it then.

Bought for its alcohol content and price tag. Gets you drunk quick although it’s not nice getting there.. Tastes like watered down apple drops (sweets).

The only good thing about this beer is the price tag! Gets you hammered quick, but tasted like hell!
