Bladder bag at the Royston, Broadstairs, 20/07/24. Washed out yellow with a white cap that soon dissipates. Nose is lemon squash, hardly a trace of apple, light sugars. Taste comprises lemon rind, straw, light acidic nip, herb. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, semi drying close. Not unpleasant but nothing to ever return ... would not have guessed this was a cider.

Bag in a box at the Bucks Country Show at Penn House. Still and hazy yellow. Quite a well-balanced flavoured cider this one; the underlying tannins still come through, and the mango addition is not overwhelmingly sweet. It does get a little vague as you drink more though. Not bad though, better than most of its competitors.

Bladder Box at the 'Beer Like Your Grandad Used To Drink' Beer Festival, Ramsgate Tunnels, 13/05/23. Moderately hazed golden with a good sized frothy white head as it goes for a cider. Nose is tangy apples, rhubarb stalk, bitter sweet orchard aroma. Taste comprises rhubarb compote, straw, modest apple notes, tannins, apple skins. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, drying close. Decent as it goes for a fruited cider ... bitter edge and not silly sweet.

Bladder Box at the 'Beer Like Your Grandad Used To Drink' Beer Festival, Ramsgate Tunnels, 13/05/23. Pale almost translucent yellow with little in the way of a head. Nose is tarte apples, vinous notes, tannins, wood. Taste comprises apple skins, light funk, orchard wood, tannins, straw. Medium bodied, moderate carbonation, drying close. Not bad ... obviously well kept in the cold tunnels and not properly bollocksed as it seems it was at Chelmsford!

On tap at The Made Inn Ashford clear deep amber colour. Thin white head. Apple juice aroma. Some apple skim some character. . Lightly sparling. More apple juice in mouth bit the apple skins and tannin kick in. Even a bit of tannin attack on the teeth and gums. Pretty decent. I liked it.
