Bottle 50 cl. Courtesy of yespr. Clear yellow with a rough off-white head. Fresh apple aroma. Medium body, sweet, clean apples with a vague underlying tartness. Tart finish. Clean and crisp, authentic but never peely and astringent. Very pleasant. 230909

On tap at Gloucestershire cricket club. This was decidedly odd- I ordered during a quiet time at the bar, so the barman was able to use both Thatcher’s Gold taps at once. One produced a golden heavily carbonated cider, the other an amber moderately carbonated one. I drank the golden one - ok for a sweet cider, albeit in the industrial category but better than both Strongbow and Blackthorn old recipe (goes without saying that the new one is terrible).

An orange cider with no head. Both the aroma and flavor are sweet apply. A quite ordinary cider.
