14/11/2023. Bottle from Swiss Farm courtesy of ITFCDan. As Ridgway Pig Strawberry & Lime Cider. Pours clear pinkish amber with a short lasting frothy head. Aroma is sweet, syrupy, strawberry, apple, lime. Very sweet and sugary taste redeemed by nice tangy lime tartness. Moderate body, oily, fizzy. Sweet syrupy finish. Lime element made it better.

Bag in a box at the Kings Head, Leicester. Light-ish yellow, still with no head. Apple aroma with a strong waxy/plastic note. Sweet-ish taste, cleaner than the aroma but still that little bit unconvincing. Light smooth body. I can't complain about this. It isn't all that exciting but there's flashes of a properly good cider in here.

Sample thanks to Grumbo! Clear deep pink appearance. Pretty sweet, assorted berries in check, perhaps a hint of tomato maybe. Fine overall, a natural feel in the fruit though this could not be the case.
