On keg @ the Last Drop, Edinburgh. This cider had quite ripe, almost stewed apples, a well balanced palate and a nice tangy finish.

Draught @ Pie & Ale, Manchester. A new Westons eh. Isn’t this exciting. I’m assuming from the logo and description on the glass this is marketed to the more affluent cider drinker, the Hyacinth Bucket to Weston’s 3litre-bottle Onslo cider ’GL’. It’s a pleasant drink, lightly sparkling, lightly flavoured, lightly coloured, lightly everything really. And it went well with my pie too. Bit too middle-of-the-road but drinkable nonetheless.
