2.6 500ml can from Tesco, Lower Ashtead. Pours clear golden yellow, highly carbonated. Aroma of apple and cardboard. Sweetish finish.
2.5 Bottle from DelMart. Golden body, big head initially bud disappears soon. Weak, dusty aroma, light fermented green apple. Meh. Light, watery taste, actually nicely smooth, but the taste, when it's not just some light, soft, appley acidity, but some sub par fermented apple notes pop up, identifying it as damn cheap really. Eh.
1.7 # 1393; 4/2019. Nevýrazný cider s výraznou vůní i chutí po síření. Nakysle navinulý.
2.5 On tap chiaro dorato limoido discreta gastura naso mela finta sciroppo per la tosse lieve tannico
3.0 As Thatcher's Original Cider, same ABV. Gold, no head to speak of. Nice low carbonation really suits it. Aroma of sweetish apples but it's not all that sweet and has a mildly drying apple peel finish. Made a mustard and cider chicken dish with this and drank the rest with it. It's unspectacular but pleasant with nice balance.
2.9 [50cl can.] A pale golden pour with a thin white head; fresh dessert apple aroma; perfumed apple taste; and a medium sweet finish. Quaffable.
3.4 Quite golden and refreshing. Nice sweet features and helps to wash down some pub food.
3.1 Keg from beer tent at New Haw Summer Fair. Thought I'd had this already so pleased to see that I didn't waste me time on non-ticks. Cage puppy apple aroma with some syrupy sweetness. Gold. Thin frothy white head. Light sweet with a sour edge. Pleasant enough when cold but sat out in the sun it warmed up and took on a slightly medicinal element. Light-medium bodied. Slick. Average carbonation. Dry and slightly astringent finish. Pretty bland mass produced stuff.
2.5 บางและซ่าไปนิด จืดเปรี้ยวไปหน่อย
2.5 Tap at Gasworks Brew Bar. Apple aroma, bit musty and wood,. Clear golden color with small sized white head, lots of lovely bubbles. Sweet apple taste. Thin body, watery, soft carbonation.
4.2 Usual aroma but very, very good quality cider. Sweet and pleasant taste. It is a pleasure to drink it.
2.5 From backlog. Bottle from Systembolaget Charlottenberg. Golden with white head. Apple and yeast.
3.3 Im Onshore in St.Ives/UK 2018-08 getrunken. Dies Cider hat zwar eine recht leichten Körper, aber die Kombination aus Frucht und Säure macht dieses Cider zu einen guten Durstlöscher.
3.8 Can. Golden colour with white head. Aroma apple and yeast. Taste nice and fresh, quite dry. A very nice companion on a hot day.
2.8 50cl bottle. A clear golden colour. Aroma of tart and young apples. Taste of mild and fresh tart apples, some yeast, easy to drink.
3.2 Gylden klar skum hvid Æble blomst Bitter lidt. Sød modrate Livlig tør @ blue
3.0 On 23rd Jan 2020 I decided to change all my 34 'ticks' for no-beers into rates. Every 'tick' scored a '3', this will not change as they become 'rates'. My 'ticks' were Ciders, Meads, Perrys and Sake. This is a cider!
2.6 Bottle @ Hven klantur. Appearance: pours clear yellow with ok white soapy head and lacing. aroma/taste: red apples, green apples, light straw and sugar. palette: medium apple aroma, light carbonation, light to medium body, average sweetness, somewhat balanced by a light to medium acidity, medium duration and a watery texture. Overall: straightforward UK cider
2.7 Tap at Kaapse 4th Anniversary. Clear golden with white head. Sweet aple, moldy bark, applesauce. Moderate sweet and bitter. Medium body and soft carbonation.
3.2 Bottle sampled from Cider Cider. Clear golden with short lasting white head. Dry apple, soft sugar too but it’s somehow underneath the apple, dry apple peel, light earthy and mineral. Under medium sweet and bitter. Over light bodied. Ok.
3.0 Bottle, small stable bubbly head, clear yellow color, aroma and flavor of apple and spiciness with a lingering fruitiness behind. Not too sweet , lightish bitterness. Nice and simple.
3.0 4.8% out of the bottle. Light in colour, fresh nose. Medium dry, slightly sweet, well carbonated. Clean and crisp . Halfway between a Strongbow and a Magners. Enjoyed in the sunshine
3.0 On tap (4.8%), 1/2 pint at Sir John Moore, Glasgow on 4 Nov 2017: apple aroma, golden with a thin short-lived white head, fizzy, sweet apple cider.
4.3 Pale gold in colour with a light, bright white head. Mine was draught. Nose - like granny Smith apples that are freshly sliced. Taste - sweet and crisp with a dry hit and a heavy taste of the golden delicious variety of apples. Truly a nectar of Gods. If you like sweet cider try thatchers haze
2.7 Keg from the Union, Aylestone. Light golden with lots of carbonation and a filmy white head. Not a lot of apples in the scent, it smells more like water with a low concentration of bleach. A pleasant refreshing sweetness in the taste is tempered by a sour/bitter bite. Heavily carbonated. Not the most engaging of ciders.
3.4 Pale yellow colour with lasting white foam. Aromas of fermented apples, some notes of light spice. Palate, light body with thin texture leaving really dry finish. Taste, sweet of apples, slight woody also. Overall, not that bad, genuinely dry on the palate, but still rather sweet but too light and bit bland on flavours front.
3.2 Can sample at a tasting at Max's place. Thanks Tom. Clear pale yellow with white head. The aroma has notes of apple and citrus. Sweetish and bitterish flavor with notes apple, some sulfur and lemon. Dry, medium-bodied.
2.7 Pint can. Pours a clear yellow gold. Thin bodied. Moderate carbonation. Moderate to high sweetness. Not complex, but reasonably easy drinking. Not good, but still decent.
2.9 Can sample at a tasting. Thanks Tom. Clear pale yellow. Apples, sulphur, hay. Sweetish-sour, apples, sulphur, floral flavors. Light-bodied, semi-dry. Ok.
2.8 Can sample at a tasting at Max's place. Thanks Tom L. Apples, sugar, oxidation note, sweetish, slightly sourish.
