27.5 cL clear bottle. Pours clear and golden yellow with a lacing white head. Light spiced apple citric aroma. Sweet initially with a light apple-juice flavour. Holds a slight aspertam like note into the finish. Ends a bit dry-sticky.

26/10 0.3 l draught at Tolkiens House. Well, the waiter said it is Strongbow but as clumsy they are I believe more to Doggythedog whose opinion is this is a Woodpecker. Anyway, yellow body without head. Some white wine aroma. Flavor, too empty, winy, watery... Some carbonation though. Finish short, as Doggythedog told me everything is short...Drinkable but nothing more. If this was my first cider I would simply hate the style...

Apple and mystery meat aroma. Very light yellow color thin mouthfeel. Mystery of the meat is solved as it tastes of pork that has turned. Dreadful! To its credit, the balance between sweet and tart was nice, but I can’t get past the rancid meat. To be fair, I had tried it before and don’t recall it being this bad. Even then I didn’t consider it a good cider, so I’ll let the rating stand.

I’m not that experienced to ciders. This is one of the few that you can find in Greece. Light colored, fast collapsing head,light aroma of apples, nice taste that faints quickly.Refreshing at least.

Bottled, Rob Roy Bar, Playa de las Americas, Tenerife. Clear, headless, golden cider with virtually no aroma. It has some artificial sour-sweet fruityness and some yeast. Weak flavor as well, with some apples and faint notes of yeast. Thin and a bit fizzy in the mouth. A veeery commercial cider with some apples to finish it off. (070209)

Bulmers woodpecker. I’m overexcited about this cider. Not only do I like cider but this is the first imported bottle. Up till now I have only drank the US ciders that are known to be very sweet. Wood pecker 12 oz green bottle with a twist off cap. I am quite apprehensive about this bottle because last night when I brought it in it had some ice crystals in it. Beautiful cap that says twist off but I just ripped my fingers up on it. Pop the lid with an opener and you get a sour whiff but pleasant. Nice fizz into the glass but no head. I can’t even remember the color of the fizz. Very pale yellow and crystal clear. Some bubble here and there but none streaming. It has a very enjoyable sour and sweet apple flavor during the initial taste surprise. No presence of alcohol noted whatsoever. Slight sense of carbonation on your tongue rapidly fades to flat. A very easy to drink repeatable session brew. This is not sweet like wine coolers, something different. Very enjoyable and as a result, better watch out how much you drink. Can’t wait to taste another import cider. Very nice and well liked. Finish is clean and dry without a linger except, possibly, a pleasant memory.
