Bottle from Aldi, Wycombe. Had a different flavour of this back in Ratebeer days, (a gift from someone who clearly didn't like me very much!) but it wasn't rateable on that site due to the low apple content. Didn't take any notes that time, so given that it's allowed on Brewver I've had to buy another bottle to get the region tick. It's fake pink in hue with a hint of orange and a ring of white on top. It's too sweet and fizzy from the off, but that's pretty much a given with these fake ciders. It tastes of Ribena, fake raspberry, blueberry and sugar. Too sweet and fake for me, couldn't finish the bottle.

500ml bottle from Aldi, Darlington. 3.4%. Reddish-pink colour, short-lived white foam head and aroma of ribena, mixed berries. Taste is sweet berry, fruit cordial, sugary, syrup, jam, with a slight citric tartness. Medium bodied, high carbonation, sweet berry finish. Very sweet & artificial.

Slightly misted crimson red with a small pink head of low retention. Heavy sweet forest berry jam on nose. Distant apples. Less sweet taste of the same profile. Light sour. Very simple. Very commercial.

440ml can. Actually made in the UK, but whatever. Pours clear red with no head. Aroma is artificial raspberries, other berries. Taste is medium sweet, syrupy berries. Sweet and slightly sour finish. Light bodied. Weak stuff. I remember adding and rating one of these on ratebeer not long after joining — I was swiftly and somewhat curtly informed that it wasn’t real cider and had my rating deleted 😁

Easy drinking lots of redcurrants. Not bad macro cider.
