500ml can from a random corner shop in Tiverton. Drank at my brothers on 3rd May 2025, just after Grimsby Town blow their Play Off chance by losing at home to AFC Wimbledon. Clear light golden body, no head. Dry apples, not a lot of sugar in this tramp juice.

Can bought at Southsea Minimarket (I think that's what it was called). May be related to the Bavaria beer that is retired on the other site but which never appeared on here. Aroma is doughy with a metallic edge. Clear copper gold. Foamy translucent white head. Malty doughiness with a citrusy metallic edge... again. That citrus at least gives it a hint of personality. Thin. Watery but slick. Soft-fizzy carbonation. Long quite astringent finish. Drivel but not unpleasant.

Okay gold body but minimal foam and little carbonation. Really faint nothingness on the nose, like really nothing. Taste is a bit of bitter apple, lingering sugar and tin. Dry I guess, but this is one disappointing cider.

500ml can from Londis, Lytham St Anne. Amber gold colour, white foam head that dissipates away and aroma of tangy apple, sweaty socks, sick, sulphur. Taste is sweet, apple flavouring, sugary with a fruity hint and sulphury notes. Medium bodied, spritzy carbonation, dry astringent finish with residual sweetness. Not the best

500ml can. Pours dark orange with no carbonation. Aroma is sour off apple and a little ash. Taste has woody off apple juice. Gassy finish.

Plastic bottle from Premier Hele Bay Garage, Ilfracombe. Golden-blonde coloured cider with a fizz to it. It’s very ordinary stuff, below average in reality with a very light apple flavour.
