Description
Since the launch of Somersby in 2008, we like to think we have taken the world by storm. We went from 1 to over 50 markets in less than 10 years, and despite our short history, have become the biggest international cider brand in the universe.

After updating 79 Somersby abominations I noticed I've never actually thried their flagship cider... Here goes:
As Somersby Apple Classic, made in Croatia. Clear golden. Massive sugar, apple candy, vanilla, Granny Smith. Quite sweet, light aour. Clean crisp body, no dryness at all. Well, it's sweet and tastes not terrible so it is drinkeable, but also it's not cider at all and just an apple flavoured alcopop.

Basically carbonated apple juice with hints of spices. Dry fruity sourness and sweetness. Light bodied, watery texture, fizzy carbonated, dry sour sweet finish. It’s overall not a bad beverage, but not even close to a cider.

Panda courtesy of Fergus, cheers! Bright red colour, bubbly pink foam head and aroma of blueberry & lemon. Taste is sweet, berry fruity, blueberry, with some lemony citrus tartness. Medium bodied, medium carbonation, sweet & tart berry finish. Kind of OK.

Can at home picked up from HOTM. A bright fluro purple pink coloured pour with aa fading halo of bright pink loose head. Aroma is semi sweet, tangy blueberry, jammy berries, sugar, lemon twist. Flavour is composed of quite artificial chemically, berry, blueberry flavouring with a citric twist, harsh chemical, hairspray, pithy finish. Palate is semi sweet, little pithy, insipid, highish carbonation. Not great. At least it's not too sweet.

Can 33 cl. Pours a clear reddish orange with a short, fizzy head. Spicy Vermouth aroma - same goes for the flavor. Light body, dry orange notes with a spicy edge. Not overly sweet, slightly tart - even Vermouth bitter. 220925

Can 33 cl. Pours a clear pale yellow with a short, fizzy and quickly dissipating white head. Aroma is just as much pear as apple - and the same goes for the flavor. Light body, sweet but not cloyingly so. Faint tartness. 220925

Can 33 cl. Pours a clear yellow with a small, white head. Rustic citrus aroma from the yuzu. Medium body with an artificial sweetness, but not overly so. Good citrus flavors and hardly any tartness. 210922

Can 33 cl. Pours a clear red with a short, fizzy head. Intense and sweet aroma of forest berries. Medium body, sugary sweet - and artificial - forest berries in the flavor. A sugary bomb indeed. Nothing cidery here, the base could've been whatever. 290825
