Bottle from ASDA Supermarket, Halifax. Almost clear with a carbonation. Sweet, and subtle with its fruit, perhaps the berry is slightly dominant. Is sweet but at a very manageable and drinkable level. Sweet aroma edging things a little closer to a rhubarb and custard boiled sweet in this respect.

Pale yellow, short fizzy top, no head. Tropical aroma, kiwi comes though but no fresh notes. Moderate carbonation, light body. Taste of apples with kiwi, slight sourness from lime and all very sweet. Quite distinctive with the use of kiwi. I think its their best offering out of the 3 I have reviewed to date, but its not a standout.

500ml bottle. Pinkish ruby colour, fizzy white head that quickly goes. Sweet aroma of berries and cherries, sugar, but a bit artificial. Palate has moderate carbonation and a slight syrupy texture. Taste is sweet of berries mainly but the cherries do come through at the end and more so if you swill around the palate. Decent flavoured cider, very sweet but not to the level of some offerings.

500ml bottle. Pours a pale yellow with a slight pink tinge with a quickly fading high white fizz. Aroma of pineapple and a hint of raspberry. Very sweet taste with the pineapple coming through and again a hint of raspberry with a slightly sweet apple cider finish. Mouthfeel is tooth rotting sweetness and fairly high carbonation. It’s a tasty but uncomplicated and over sweetened cider.

500ml bottle. Pours bright pink with a large head. Aroma is generic berries and summer fruits squash. Taste has cherries and apple to start, with summer fruits squash on the tart finish. Not overly sweet, easy bbq fodder.

500ml bottle. Clear slightly pink colour, no head. Sweet apple and some raspberry on the nose. Taste is sweet, apples, slightly artificial raspberry (flavoured sweets, rather than the fruit), didn't get any pineapple. Not bad for what it is, but probably my least favourite of theirs so far.

[50cl bottle from Sainsbury’s, Bracknell.] A pale straw coloured pour with quick white fizz; slightly dusty apple aroma; sweet with a predominantly apple taste; and some lime to finish. More cider like than most of their offerings, but probably should not be rateable here.
