Very generous sample (too generous for my liking, they were clearly trying to get rid of the stuff!) from a promotion at Sainsbury's, Wycombe. Red with a light fizz. Taste of watered-down Ribena. There's actually some dryness there which balances the sweetness, and for a moment I thought it wasn't too bad for an industrial flavoured cider. But then I got that horrible artificial sugar flavour that you get from diet drinks, the one that always makes me feel queasy, and... well, yeah, this is not for me. Maybe if you like diet soda you'll like this, but otherwise leave it well alone.

330ml can from Local Shop. Clear bright deep red colour, purple-pink foam head that quickly dissipates away and aroma of berry cordial, raspberry & blackberry. Taste is sweet, sugary, berry cordial, alittle acidic tartness. Light bodied, highly carbonated, very sweet finish. Too sweet for me .

Can from ASDA Supermarket, Manchester. Dark red coloured with a lightish carbonation. Red and dark berry flavours and aromas are quite stated, although the body of this one does feel a little thinner than the original version.
