500ml bottle. Crystal clear pink. Aroma of strawberry flavoured Haribo (i.e. artificial). Taste is exactly what you'd expect, sweet strawberry (and cream?) flavouring, apple is subtle, surely not real strawberry juice used in here. Soft carbonation. These used to be a guilty pleasure of mine before I got into beer. It's pleasant enough for what it is.

Draught: Poured a clear red color cider with good carbonation. Aroma of cherry and berries are quite dominant. Taste is also a mix of cherry and berries with some light residual sugar notes. Body is about average with good carbonation. Refreshing with a limited level of complexity.

Bottle at TGI Fridays, High Wycombe, due to it being the only thing I hadn't rated (the drinks choice here being so poor that there's nothing I'd want to drink a second time). It's bright pink, it's got a light fizz. It's slightly sweet and slightly artificial, with the main taste being weak Ribena. A low grade cider comes through afterwards, about which my main thought (oddly) was it's a bit hairy. Overall then it's not great, but like most of the Old Mout range it's not as sweet or fake as many mass-market flavoured ciders. It's actually reasonably drinkable if you like that sort of thing.

Light, lighter than most of their ciders. Decent watermelon flavor and quite refreshing.

Bottle at the High Wycombe cricket club watching St Vincent & Grenadines vs Barbados T20 International, 21/08/22 - there's always a Rake out there ! Light raspberry red with a fast collapsing crimson cap. Nose is sweet berry pap... can't pick out cherries ... touch of raspberry, modest apple. Taste follows...sweet and flabby. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close. Pretty gash ... NZ rate for cheap skates I imagine !

Bottle split at Mother Arch during the 2014 Zwanze Celebrations, thanks to Chriso is my guess, 20/09/14. Clear pink with a moderate crimson covering. Nose is pinkberry, sweet berry tones, straw. Taste follows, sweet berry licks, apple and blackberry crumble, grassy notes. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close. So so fruit cider.
