330ml bottle from Cork & Cask. Florescent bright red-pink colour, short-lived pink foam head that dissipates to a thin rim and aroma of intense artificial strawberry, chewing gum. Taste is sweet, bubblegum, strawberry flavouring, apple underhint, milky and yogurty. Syrupy mouthfeel, medium bodied, high foamy carbonation, sweet artificial strawberry sauce finish. Very very sweet, kind of like chewing strawberry milkshake bubblegum!

330ml bottle from Booze Free UK during Dry Jan. Pours pale gold, aroma of sugary apple sweets, taste continues with an overly sugary artificial apple sweets approach, much like most of the commercial fizzy apple pop masquerading as cider in Portugal and Spain. Good amount of flavour for an alcohol free cider, but just way too sweet and artificial for any adult appeal.

Bottle from Appellation Wines. Appearance - cherry red/pink. Light white froth on the head. Nose - cherry lozenge and light raspberry note. Quite sweet but ok. Taste - again slightly sweet, but balanced cherry again. Palate - tangy and yet creamy in the end. The body is light. Overall - a bit more grown up than the Strawberry.
