Green Valley Devon Farm Cyder - Dry
Cask handpull at The Pembury Tavern as Green Valley Devon Farm Cyder, 7.5%. According to the barman the type isn't specified but he thinks it's the Dry because it "hurts his salivary glands". I sort of know what he means. Pours a clear amber, still with no head. Aroma is intense apple with a slight strawberry note. Attracts a lot of fruit flies. Body is smooth with soft carbonation. Taste is plasticky, rounded creamy strawberries, a big strawberries and cream vibe with some rhubarb and custard sweets too, then that Dry vibe that the barman says is like gasoline. I'm a little more forgiving - I'd call it marzipan fruits and plastic. Raspy dry finish with a lingering musty apple. Alcohol not that noticeable. Will mess you right up. (7-3-6-4-15=3.5)

Green Valley Strawby Cider
Box @ Stable, Birmingham. Pours pale red. Fairly strong strawberry aroma. Taste is all about the strawberry, moderately sweet and not massively artificial or chemically like most other strawberry ciders. Fair carbonation. It’s not bad, with just enough tart apple fruit shining from underneath.
