Bottle, pale yellow in colour, some apple notes. I rather like this cider as I find it quite refreshing and much better than some of the other more commercial ones you can pick up, I suppose it’s a little on the strong side to be drinking a few of but it’s a fine enough cider in my opinion.

Polypin at County Hotel, JDW, Ashford. Cloudy orange/gold colour. This is better than the draught I had the same day. Apple/tangerine aromas and flavour. Off dry, sweetish fruit, in the mouth, bit of dryness on end. Curiously drinkable. It’s how I remember Thatcher’s being. Orangeade with apple juice.

From polypin at County Hotel, JDW, Ashford. Hazy gold colour. Quite a rubbery dry cider. Rubber and nuts. Brazil I think. Oh and some apple. Very dry finish. Not sour, just extremely parching. Quite pleasant, but nothing astonishing
