Description
Hello and welcome to Brothers Cider, the home of the original festival cider. We are Francis, Jonathan, Matthew and Daniel and for 14 generations, since 1658, when uncle Gabriel first sold his barrels around Wells, Shepton Mallet and Glastonbury, our family has strived to make light, refreshing ciders using a variety of fruit. We are constantly exploring new recipes and love to get your feedback on our latest creations.
We first started selling our Pear Cider at the Glastonbury Festival in 1995 near what was then called the Jazz World Stage. These days it is called The West Holts Stage but our bar is still in the same place. Over the years, festival goers kept asking us if it was possible to get our drink when the festival was over and so we decided to market it to pubs and supermarkets. Now you can get it all over the country and at other festivals besides Glastonbury. See you at the bar!

330ml bottle bought at Eide Handel. Horizontal tasting of four bottles from Brothers Cider. Dissipating pinkish head, clear purple-reddish body, scattered lacing. Modest smell of berry skins, mid-sweet. Sweet taste of berries and grape on a backbone of almond. Mid-dry sweet ending. Drinkable, very sweet tough. (Tromsø 03.05.2021).

Waste of money. Contains carbonated water, sugar, E330, E224, fruit flavorings... This is sodapop with alcohol. Tastes like 🍒 candy and liquid winegums. This should not be called cider. Drainpoured after a single sip. Let’s try something else! Cheers 🥂

1st BBQ of the year: 30th Mar 2021, it's Bertie's Birthday, so I decided to get rid of all my shit stuff in one long drunken session. This was the fourth. Clear 275ml bottle; Christ this is sweet. It's even sweeter than the non-spiced version and that rotted my teeth!
